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

    • I'm thinking that this is such a small part of the problem that you could easily forego the vac pump and just achieve 90% of what you need, which is keeping the gate open when off boost. It's not as if there are not already techniques to keep a gate fully closed under boost. After all, you have boost. Just use a wastegate actuator that will allow you to apply the boost on the appropriate side, just like every external gate out there.
    • Heres another fitment photo. redrilled the pattern to 5x112, and threw my audi´s rims on. had to touch the upper control arms with grinder, because the "sharp corner" was sticking about 2-3mm on the tire path. i have the "fender lip" mostly cut off, otherwise these (too) would contact with it. 20x9.5 ET25 rear    265/30 20x8.5 ET20 front    255/30 they are temporary, and look too big for the chassis. searching for 19s to it.
    • From experience, it will come back to bite you haha.
    • Background: my BMW 225i hatchback (rebodied MINI/X1) came with 3x RE003 and 1x Goodyear Asymmetric something. The RE003 roared and slid around, the Goodyear side was quiet and grippy. Definitely my car was thrashed before it got sent to dealers. My brother also got RE003 all round on his old VA WRX STI, I wasn't impressed with them, car was loud so can't comment on noise. Anyway, Hankook stopped making/updating V12 Evo2. So bought S1 Evo3 runflats. Great daily duties tyre and not that harsh ride. Tyre reviews site/youtube rated them as best stopping in the rain and I believe them. Next set, Goodyear Asymmetric 5 non-RFT. It beat PS4 in tests and is like $100 cheaper, so put them on. Great tyre, more grip then S1 Evo3 but a tad noisier as expected, still rocking them. Next set I am looking to go runflats, probably the new Hankook Evo. Although the new Pirelli PZ5 did well in tyrereviews test. Or go Goodyear Asymmetric 6 which was top tyre last year. The V12 Evo2 on my gen5 Liberty GT wagon did great in cold condition (drove to snowy mountains for a day so my husky can feel his ancestor's roots). Super impressive performance for $120 each lol. Never skimp on tyres, brakes, suspension. There's old pics of my R31's crappy random brake pads bending in the caliper at Oran Park track day somewhere around here. Anyway, my 2 cents.
