My boost controll gives me a chatter sound and I hate it

Power fc boost controll, turbosmart 45 external waste 14 psi spring. 3l and 10cm rear.

when this thing comes on boost it makes a disgusting chatter sound threw the wastegate witch I thought was knock Im pretty sure it's the boost controller pulsing. It's also a bit doughy. 

When I turn boost controll off. It spikes to 20psi witch is my target then falls to 15 14. It feels like it has more torque aswell. And Best of all. That crappy chatter sound goes away.

ive thought of some options

am I best to get rid of the boost controll and get a 18psi spring and Mabey bleed off mechanically?

or hook up the  e boost controller so it's not fail safe and just goes to the bottom port and not the top and bleed it of electronically.

or are my settings wrong. Ramp and gain and all that stuff?

My Power FC boost control kit never made any noise. Also, when the boost control is turned off, your boost control should (funnily enough) do nothing. I accidentally turned it off once and hit 27psi before i realised (running 18psi back then)

Sounds like you have another issue. Is it hooked up right?

I'm pretty sure it's hooked up correct. I can double check in the morning. There's a chance the solenoid is round the wrong way.

yes ure rite. When it's turned off it does nothing. And the bottom port of the waste gate still gets boost pressure cause there's a tee piece on the boost controll feed. This is the fail safe rite? 

I feel pretty dumb but this is going back to basics isn't it?

when mine is turned off it hits 20 psi the. Goes back to 14 But that's to be expected isn't it with a "small" 10cm rear turbo housing on a rb30.

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
