Hey guys need help setting up my boost controller. I can seem to get it to run anymore then 0.4 bar of boost. Have a gt3076 with 38mm external gate.

Any help would be much appreciated.

What settings should I be on?

Here are the instructions on how to install it to an internal gate and an external gate. Makes a world of difference when its wired up properly :)

I have the newer one to that it's the digital one and it's silver.

Yeh I have it plumbed right it's just the settings I just can't understand them.

SET is how much boost you want

GAIN simply put it, too much and boost will spike too little and it's lazy

Newer Profecs also have the Start boost, which works similar to the GAIN

if nothing is happening, you've plumbed it wrong

Oh ok well when I turn the controller off it goes unlimited boost. When on it runs .40 bar. I'm surprised that there is a .40 bar spring lol who wants to run. Like 6psi wtf

Sounds like you've plumbed it wrong already

When it's off it should only be gate pressure

Sounds like you have the NC and NO mixed up, try swapping the fitting into the other hole if it has one.

You have an external gate, why don't you just swap in a heavier spring? No need for an electronic controller really...

yes and no, the gate cracks open a touch before it reaches its defined gate pressure (if you want to call it that) running an EBC and utilising both top and bottom ports can keep the gate closed a little longer giving you a flatter boost response, instead of gentle ramp

I tend to like to let it spike a little and then the boost to settle, but that's just me :)

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
