I think the reason why most people are posting the responces they are is cause at this very moment you can get an EBC Profec B II in the for sale section for not much more than your selling your bleed valves for.

Anyway, good luck with the sale.

thanks! but im not selling em I'm just using one and am very happy!!!...the guy on the site is selling em...

I'll try get one down here (syd) and let a few ppl use it, even if you got a very expensive conroller come compare it to this, I'd prefer if ppl already have a controller though it makes it easy to swap over...

the price is what it is because of the quality of the valves and research put in... not its electricals and brand name

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 )

i think you'll find the 1JZ is actually the soarer motor, the 2JZ is the supra (the supra uses a 3.0 litre as opposed to 2.5 in the soarer GT) i might be wrong...

1JZ-GTE came out in a few cars one of being a JZA70 Supra also a Soarer, Chaser (what i use), cresta to name a few they also have some impresive factory specs, but i won't get into that here and now..

The JZ motors are a damn good motor.. :)

I don't think us Nissan heads can disagree with that.

No hard feelings MX83Toy,

The www site came across to myself as a little dodgy.

Some of the comments on the www site appear a little unrealistic, as even you would know your self it is impossible to get a near same 0-100 time every time.

Unless you have 4wd or bugger all power you can get damn close :)

:D yeah its very hard!!! but this bloke that made this thing is a nut ! his car is still running near standard engine and standard turbos with steel wheel upgrades (we're cursed with ceramics as well :D from factory ) and getting it going faster than alot upgraded cars, he does run after run after run ect... ect... the time this bloke put in is unbelivable...

he has found probs with the toyota ct12a,12b and ct26 turbos and also t25,t28 which this controller is meant to correct (somthing to do with presures and leaks *he lost here somewhere*) but yeah it fixes it and you go faster

But at the end of the day its still a bleed valve.

And if u think i know nothing about valves, i welcome you to come see the valves we design and built eg. 2-10 meter hydraulically controlled butterfly valves which are used in pipelines, dams, powerstations etc and are worth over $200,000 each.

Anyway paying over $300 for a bleed valve is still a joke coz it will never be able to control boost as well as an ebc with which uses a stepper motor like the hks evc, especially when u start using external wastegates.

wow $200,000 for a valve and ppl call these expensive (these lil valves work a little different to those ones but hey your the valve desgner..... "Gas filled what? A valve like this works using a spring and a diaphragm. Are you thinking we're all complete morons or something?") mate i said nothing ... :)

ok cool you know lots ... thats great!!! thanks for your input....dont use one....

guyz everyone else, still free to try it out like i said even if you already have any expensive EBC...this does alot more than a bleed valve too...i can get good bleed valves for 30 bucks so why would i be going nuts over this thing?????

Im open to new things, but i must admit.. this has got a sence of BS to it

I mean common, Japan is the leader in performance turbo engines, cars, racing .. everything to do with turbos. They have the worlds fastest turbo cars and most powerful turbo engines.

Why dont they use this 'very special boost controller'

coz even calling it a very special boost controller is gay to begin with.

Its a bit like when u meet someone tosser that tells u that his brothers mates skyline is running 30psi with the stock turbo and smokes the tyres in every gear. U just look at em and say ok and walk away. :)

Sooner or later one of these things is going to turn up in Bris and I suspect you will have egg on your face. :)

The Audi DIY appears to be good enough for Sydneykids cars and I DON'T think he is an idiot, in fact he seems very pragmatic and down to earth, and with a mountain of experience and knowledge in regard to turbo'd cars.

You haven't even seen this thing never mind actually used it!! So why are you so sure it is rubbish.... and why for gods sake are you so stupidly hostile

    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
