Hey all,

Just installed a Turbo smart dual stage boost controller to mah baby...

Having some troubles...

Minimum boost i can set to is like heaps more than my stock boost.

And if i wind her up a touch, it cuts out.. whcih means ill need a fuel cut defender.

but curious y i cant set it any lower?

Anyone had this prob before...

Also wont switch between hig and low boost.?

did i just **** up, or just **** up... Its pretty simple stuff, but somethings gone wrong? :S

I can't help Stirlo - but did something silly myself yesterday along this line. Played with my HKS EVC III boost controller without knowing what I was doing. I did **** it up. Havent been able to find help to fix it. :(

I think we need a Local Guru who's willing to post free advice in our Forums

SkyGTRline, did you remove the factory restrictor? just near where you would have installed the aftermarket controller, there should be a stock "controller/limiter" in the hose, have a search on the forums for exact details of how to remove it if necessary

By the way, I mounted my evc on the steering column, used a 'Verbatim' lid off a box of 1.44 floppies [right size, suitably shaped] and used wurths urethane [black sticky sh1t] to hold it down. Painted it all with holts satin black double sided tape [on before the paint] and it looks like a factory job.

Photo coming.

I'd like a high/low button on the steering wheel, but I'll get to that [along with the maxima cruise control------dreams I]. Just in case it's useful to anyone...........

Thanx all, yea might have to take it to da pros...

The factory solenoid or whatever it is has been removed by the previous owner... and there is Siliocn hose runing across... which prob means there has been something in ther before.

Ill give trojan a go..

And BTW do i look like stirlo??? coz i dont think i look like stirlo.... so i think that means im not stirlo... :(

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • 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.
