Hi Everyone

I'm just wondering what people reckon on this install plan for a R33 Gtr with Greddy Profec Electronic Boost Controller.

post-120471-0-73387600-1402911708_thumb.jpg

I plan to run a new line that goes from one turbo actuator to the other and tee into that line. This will go to the boost solenoid.

Next I will put a barb fitting on the intercooler pipe as close as i can to the turbo's, This will go to the boost solenoid.

Next I will Tee into the factory boost gauge line that will supply the Senser Unit with boost and vacuum.

I will block or completely remove the stock lines that supply the stock boost solenoid. Also my question is if i unplug the factory boost solenoid will it cause any issues with my tune or throw a ecu code if so how would I fix it.

For the wiring I plan to connect it upto the cigarette lighter light.

Below is how I think it should look in the engine bay?

Basically correct. Your drawing is wrong around the factory boost sensor. The line from it that goes into the car is of course a cable, not a hose, so you want to tee your Profec's boost sensor into the line on the other side of the factory sensor.Als

Also, don't hook the Profec's power supply into the ciggy lighter light. It won't work unless you have your lights on. The ciggy lighter itself is on accessories, so will work, or you can steal power from the accessories line feeding the stereo.

Don't unplug the factory solenoid if you're worried about it. I don't think that they cause a code, and you could always test it yourself to find out anyway. ^ of one, half a dozen of the other really.

Thanks for your reply. At the moment most of the lines are plumbed in, Now left to do is drill and tap holes in the twin turbo hot pipe, The Greddy manual say's for two holes e.g. one for each turbo but could I get away with just the one barb fitting at the end of the twin turbo hot pipe?

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
