I just bought one and can't get it to work. Well it lights up and you get to play around with the settings and numbers and displays the boost level, but it doesn't seem to change my boost setting at all.

It's a Blitz DSBC, are there any Blitz specialists performance stores out there?

I'm located near Liverpool in Sydney but willing to go for a bit of a drive to find a good mechanic.

Thanks guys.

make sure the hose on the unit goes to where your boost guage is, and NOT back to the solenoids.

Huh? In more detail please...

I ran a hose from intercooler piping to the 'in' bit of solenoid, another hose from the 'out' bit of solenoid to the wastegate, bypassing the factory solenoid altogether.

Also ran a reading from the factory boost gauge line to the Boost Control unit.

3 Lines.

Anyone with installation guidance too? I think I may have installed it wrong? lol

You've installed it right. If you have power at the unit and it's connected to the solenoid ok, then it should be working alright.

Have you checked the little switch on the back of the unit to see that it's set for an internal wastegate rather than an external gate? Also that you have the gain and ratio set high enough to make a difference.

I am running the same unit with out the factory solenoid at about 30 gain and 30 ratio i think and it works fine. Also make sure that it you have the unit running at the possition you have set the boost at (say position 1) and not another position with no settings or the off position or something like that.

    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
