Heya,

found these and i am wondering if they are any different to a bleed valve?

Turbotech - Precision Manual Boost Controller

53_1_b.jpg

Don’t be fooled by inferior quality imitations- Install a Turbotech today!!

A mechanically engineered manual boost controller- engineered for:

Ø Faster spool up,

Ø Significantly reduced turbo lag

Ø Super smooth boost delivery,

Ø Virtually no boost spiking that cheaper mass produced items are notorious for

The Turbotech is installed inline between the turbo and the waste gate to fine tune the required amount of boost for your application. It is not uncommon to achieve performance gains equivalent to 10 horsepower per 1psi increase in boost levels. What does this mean for the quarter mile runner? For every 10hp increase in engine performance, 1/10 of a second can be sliced of your 1/4 mile time. Installing the Turbotech is the most effective and cheapest mod you can make to your car to achieve significant horse power gains- instantly!

Skylines, Lasers, Supras, 300ZXs, commodores, charades, 3000GTs, RX-7s, MR-2s, WRXs, PT Cruisers, EVOs, Celicas, Civics, Integras, you name it. If its got a turbo fitted, the Turbotech offers instant exhilaration!

Turbotech takes only 10-15 minutes to install and requires only a very limited set of tools. Even with no mechanical knowledge, the Turbotech is completely idiot proof to install. The unit comes with a complete set of clear instructions and diagram.

*PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS NOT JUST A BLEED VALVE – This is a quality engineered precision instrument for fine tuning boost pressure. Some backyard mechanics like to think that a bleed valve is a ‘boost control valve’, however, all a bleed valve does is restrict pressure flow. This is NOT controlling boost pressure as it is not a one way valve, a bleed valve allows pressure flow both ways and out to atmosphere. They allow back pressure which hinders fast spool up and causes excessive turbo lag because much of the unused pressure gets sucked back toward the turbo during negative boost and tries to slow down the turbine- much like having someone pulling on your shirt while trying to run. This problem creates what is known as TURBO LAG, a condition where bleed valves or mass produced and badly engineered boost controllers can’t control the boost, which can and will cause expensive damage to your engine- avoid this at all costs. Turbotech boost controllers are PURPOSE designed and individually BENCH TESTED prior to being sold.

The Turbotech with its high tensile spring and ball bearing design, is adjusted to increase your turbo’s performance, while greatly reducing turbo lag and achieving positive boost faster by faster spooling. Why is this unit different? The Turbotech is designed to prevent the turbo from back pressure and boost spiking. It does this two ways, after positive boost and driver backs off, the valve slams shut allowing zero pressure to back up and interfere with the re-spooling of the turbo. Any small amount of pressure then trapped between the Turbotech and the wastegate actuator is eliminated via a specifically sized ‘excess pressure valve’. Inferior boost controllers do NOT allow the venting of unused boost and thus causing BOOST SPIKING- ^^Expect SIGNIFICANT PERFORMANCE GAINS**

THE Turbotech is made from high grade stainless steel and brass. As air contains moisture (H20), poor quality boost controllers are made from materials such as tin or plain steel that will rust and corrode and will result in rapid deterioration of performance.

Note: It is highly recommended that a boost gauge and fuel/air gauge be used in conjunction with this product as excessive boost can cause severe engine damage. Turbotech take no responsibility for damage how so ever caused so please use common sense.

this is my understanding of how they work in the diagram below would you say this is correct?

and i am only after a cheap slight boost up to say 10psi so an electronic controller is out of the question. has anyone had any experience with these?

they are on ebay for $22.50 btw

      From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.

      Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.

      Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:

      Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
