What Boost Control Are You Using?

[lilcrash]

Hey everyone just wondering what boost control everyone is using. I've had a greddy profec in the past and found it to be a slow process to get the settings right, Im using a turbosmart boost t for now but I'm looking at going electronic again. I'm stuck between the turbosmart eboost street and the hks evc. Thoughts??

Ps- IPhone = gayness and lots of accidental button pushing.

Greddy Profec B Spec II.

// End thread.

Profec B hard to beat at the price, I have 2 of them.

If you have the right actuator then a bleeder will do the job fine anyway.

Profec B spec 2 on the stagea, gets up to max setting pretty well with little to no overboost

Currently on the track beast (yet to run) I'll just be setting the turbotech manual bleed valve to 1 bar as the twin turbo's are nothing special (just steel wheel rebuilds)

Huge thread on these units in the Forced Induction thread.

+1

If the actuator is set close to your desired boost any form of control will work well.

Gizzmo MS-IBC. They are fairly cheap to buy and a great little unit, I'm running one in my car and very happy with it.

Turbo-tech boost tee.

Cheap, reliable, proven, effective....

My high presure actuator from hypergear only holds 13/14psi, so it's about a 7 psi increase I need. Il go compare prices at Autobarn and see what looks better. I did like my greddy profec, it was just hard to set.

Had a turbosmart boost T, but lots of spiking issues! Now use a HKS EVC, boost is spot on from start to finish, easy install & easy to use!

[lilcrash]

Thanks zorro. That's what I like to hear

I'm using a Blitz SBC I-D Spec R. Not a bad little unit...only one gripe I have...the dual solenoid unit is massive (compared to others)....little bit hard to hide from praying copper eyes

[jasevr4]

I have a Blitz SBC I-Color in my M35. It was disconnected when the car was sold so I could get it registered. NFI how to plumb it in.

Running Apexi AVCR ..enjoying it now lol at the start I was LiL lost haha took week or so to get my head about it all but great fun now!

[rasored]

Stay away from gizzmo M2 timer and boost , kin shit unit , went wrong and combined with my foot over boosted and blew a ring in number 2 , STAY THE F AWAY FROM GIZZMO !!! , profec or sbc dual work well

[Hanso]

Turbosmart dual stage boost controller. Low 10psi, high 15 psi. Love the missile switch

[andy65b]

Greddy Profec B spec 2.... A very good little unit..

Once you get your head around how to set the Gain & Boost and how they work you can get a really good set up.

[lilcrash]

Ok so were are down to 3 choices. Greddy profec spec 2, hks evc and eboost street.

The greddy looks to be the most popular unit. Anyone running over 20psi?

I'll plumb it up for you, into my car

Blitz SBC ID III is what I had in my R33, was awesome, any of the Blitz dual solenoid units will keep you happy. When I bought mine several years ago i found a comparison between all the top brands and it came out on top.

I've got a Gizzmo MS-2 and it works fine. Took quite a while to get dialed in but it's all good now. It's handy having a boost controller and turbo timer in the one unit, saves clutter. I've got mine mounted where the handbreak release was as I have a factory manual and no release handle there. You can see it nicely through the bottom of the steering wheel.
