guys i put one in the cressi and went 0.7 secs faster at the creek no other mods running the same psi

it is simular idea (kind of) to the audi one but this one is very precise and gives alot more control over your wastegate, it corrects alot of probs with stocky turbos, the big valve is a standard casing but everything inside it has been custom made (to the point of it being gas filled as well), i run an APEXi S-AFC and using the recall functioni played with the precision in this controller, its unbelivable ie i can go from .91 to .92 to .93 bar ect and give the exact boost every time....

i'm going to get a spare sent down and wecome ppl to try it out instead of sitting there saying its bull (i was one of them till i put one in :D ) i've seen a few copy attempts but they never work correctly

Gas filled ??

Hmmm, what improvement does this offer?  Is it in the pressure relief valve ?

keeps the air temp inside the valve cold to make sure it is not affected by heat

ohh and for xRHETTx

My cressida is powered by a 1JZ-GTE (as in twinturbo 2.5L)as well as a few other mods so... does no where near 18's mate!!! do some homework and you'll find i've posted no info on my times exept how much faster i went, the time you prolly got were of a old NA cressi

which would not benifit from any boost mods ....well maybe stronger brakes but thats about it...

This is funny.

In fact i had to fit an LSD to overcome the BIG increase in acceleration

:bs!:

What a load of absolute crock..

I hope you are considering donating to SAU as flogging off your gear is not allowed unless you donate. :)

ROFLMAO!

$315 bleed valve? BBWWAAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

This isnt quite as good as mines_datsun, but it's certainly quite amusing at least.

.7 sec gain from a boost controller? :(

I'd like to see that. When at the drags, it really doesnt matter how much earlier it comes on when your in 2nd/3rd/4th ;)

As you most certainly wont be sitting at 3000rpm LOL

f00l.

Just curious....what boost control are all you guys using and have any of you tried out the Audi DIY boost control using good quality valves ie better quality than the Norgren valves from the article.

Dude you are an idiot.

Gas filled what? A valve like this works using a spring and a diaphragm. Are you thinking we're all complete morons or something?

"Gas keeps the temps inside the valve down"? Are you a complete imbecile and believe your own BS? What relevance does the temperature of a bleed valve have to anything.

Go and crawl back under the rock from whence you came little man.

What's wrong with Norgren valves? They are very well built in my opinion. Norgren stuff is A+ quality wise. Theyre a very big company worldwide.

Aww c'mon guys, I think your all being a little harsh. This product is great. I did a bit of looking round and actualy found some pictures of the drag run mentioned eariler by mx83toy where this "Very Special Boost Controller" was used and tested. Take a look a the results yourself.

This is a before and after shot that has been blended together to give you good idea of the speed comparison. Just look at the differnece in those 60 foot times. You will also notice the evident wheel spin as stated earlier by mx83toy once fittment of this "Very Special boost controller" was compleated. Of course this picture was taken before the LSD was fitted so you can only imagine the further power increase gained!

Nothing wrong with them, however Julian Edgar (designer of the Audi DIY boost controller) in part 2 of his articles used a better quality regulator and found better boost stability and more and finer control.

I've set up 4 of these systems now and found the same thing. So, if you use even better quality valves will you get even more improvement??

This new boost control guy is saying that this is what he has done and I would expect him to get better results.

Incidently using all Norgren parts and 6mm. pushfit fittings instead of hose tail cost would be about $120 using BIT instead of Norgren valves would double the price. In this context his price is not outlandish.

It would seem to me that a few of you posters don't know what you are knocking and some seem to be incapable of understanding the origional posts.

eg...the moron who didn't assimilate the fact that the Cressida had a twin turbo Supra motor in it( would like to see your face when you line your "Riceline up against that at the lights :) )

Gas filled Regulators are superbly precise things but cost way over my budget.

If he has machined one up himself he deserves congratulations.... not the jeers of the ignorant.

For some strange reason I expect Skyline owners to be more open minded than the average bod......however ...I can live with the disapointment.

End of :D:rofl:

51jay thankyou... i can't belive some of these responses???? this is a car enthusiests forum correct???!!! i cant belive such uneducated resposes from ppl who don't know crap about valves then have the nuts to call others idiots!!!

sewid...

"Gas filled what? A valve like this works using a spring and a diaphragm. Are you thinking we're all complete morons or something?"

No, do some homework, and then come install this in your car and call me an idiot if it goes the same...

Yes its something a little differn't but if you use the same things over you'll get the same resaults...

I put it in my car and went faster ... that simple. the performance gain you get for the money is wild

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
