look man i didnt invent the thing....to my understanding this is one of the functions of the gass.... i've gone alot faster with it compared to other controllers full stop. you want to try one out, cool come down,  

you want to bag it out come up with something better yourself, and then prove its better else...

u r just repeating the bs the guy that sold it to you told you aint u??

god, i cant beleive how much of a joke this thread is becoming. Its more about who knows what instead of what this thing really does.

Why dont we start a pole/vote,

IE weather this product 'floats' or 'sinks'

Just on the compressed gas note,

ahhh how much could it possibly hold? 100ml of compressed air?

how long would this last? like a week?

now who would want to 'refill' there bleed valve every week.

This thing is starting to show more and more holes the more we disect it.

Why dont u do us a favour MX, find someone in your area on SAU, go put the bleed vavle on their car, set to the same boost as they were previously running, and get them to post a report.

infact, why dont u post some pics of this thing, where it holds the compressed gas etc etc

untill then :kick:

but you have NEVER seen it in action howcan you say it is not worth it?? what if you put it in and your car picks up .5 of a sec down the 1/4??? i know heaps of ppl that have spent alot more than that to make up simular resaults....

as i said ppl with ANY controller come try it out and compare

I hope people who do this dont automaticaly think its better, when it might have been a case where thier original boost controller might not have been set up correctly. Just because the new system might have made the car quicker, doesnt mean its a better system, just might have shown up a problem in the setup of their original controller.

howz about i get back to everyone with some more info...  ? ? ? sewid your in syd ???  i'll get another controller down here and you come try it out....what are you using ATM

I currently have the Apexi boost control kit connected to the Apexi PowerFC.

I admire your offer and you seem to stand by your device so I will wait until your more detailed information arrives before i would take you up on anything.

Currently i dont run anything more than 9psi anyway due to summer (i know its not now but yesterday was 39!!) and it being my daily driver.

So for now im laying off in this thread.

you don't even need the times down the quater you can feel the difference ...

you dont have to call it better you can call it different...

but it definantly feels great the boost rushes up real fast (feels mad with my twin turbos) the acuracy is just freaky but now im repeating my self :)

Dluded,

Boost coming on hard has got to do with quite a few different things.

1. being the correct fueling

2. being the correct timing for the boost

3. being good fuel

4. cold night

5. being a good boost controller

On a cold night in second gear with new 225's on the rear boost comes on hard enough for it to break traction in second for a little while then power off down the road. If the road is a little lumpy or off camber it will spin up the rears sending the car sideways.

Its a lot of money to spend on a pneumatic boost controller for little gain.

Also his car will be making a lot more power than yours providing you are still with the stocker turbo.

i just went in mx83toys car 2nite and after being in the passengre seat im definately goin to get one of these things when my r32 arrives. seriously ive never felt boost come on so hard.  

just my 2 cents (everyone at toymods.com has only good things to say)

seat of the panths feeling is not factual proof!!!!

good luck to you if u want to fork out $300 for a bleed valve

Its a little more then a bleed valve people pay ~200 for turbo smart dual stage type setups, and they are worse then just crimping the wastegate line. Instant now all your arguement has come down to is the price, not the actual ability of the boost controller to hold boost, if you wanna talk about wastes of money how much did the 'eyelids' on your car cost?

Its always been about the price.

What made the price look even worse is the bloke who is selling these things sounds like a n00b or a con artist with his stupid lines.

Hence:

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

That was just one of the bullshit things he wrote.

Sounds like a really bad used car salesman.

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • 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"
