i bought one of these bad boys as well!

will find out in the next few weekends how it goes myself when i try it out...

also only took 1 week from when i bought to when i had it in my hand - recommended seller for sure

does the guy make them himself?

um tried it out tonight

holy shit all i can say is get one everyone these are the shit i have not seen another device work as well as this

first run was scary guage went over 20psi on the guage so dont know what boost but blew the intercooler hose off even with those big industrial clamps

we

hen i got it sorted it16psi boost came on slightly quicker but hit like a hammer and response is more defined now as well, but also when it hit 16 there was no spike nothing just sat at 16 and did not move up or down

i am extremley happy with this

everyone throw your old boost contollers away and get 1 of these

20psi?

did you adjust it wrong or something? it has to be fully open to start with remember...

Its to prevent the boost being held between the actuator and the bleeder.

When this happens even though the car isn't making boost there is still boost between the bleeder (ball and spring) and the actuator, this holds the actuator open and makes a very very sluggly boost up between gears.

yeah i know lol

for some reason we where trying to find what the nipple on the top of the externall gate did so i conected it to that

first runn did nothing second with a full turn nothing third time again full turn nothing so put the tap in line on the bottom nipple and forgot to wind it back out very silly on my behalf

just stocked how well the car ran at (over 20psi as my gauge only goes to 20) over 20psi

not ping nothing it loved it right in the meat of the turbo efficiency the car loved it but i got a bit scared so yeah

now at a hard and relaible 16psi i cant believe how well it holds boost

like a rock!!

ha ha  

i am dying to put mine in too, but i'm going back to melb for the weekend... so i have to wait untill next weekend! :cheers:

grrrr

Ok so i just purchased myself one of these bad boys, hope to see it by the end of the week. If it does what all you pimps say it does then i think it might be the best $30 i have ever spent on a car :headspin:

Prior to installing it I pulled it apart again, I found the ball bearing is indeed NOT stainless steel, as I blew through it prior it had begun rusting the ball bearing. :rolleyes:

I cleaned it up and threw it in anyhow, appears to work well HOWEVER I am unable to wind any boost in as the cars been tuned with 12:1 afr's.

So more boost will = lean.

The stock rb20det turbo is crap anyhow, I might throw a cheapo VG30DET turbo on it until I get the money for the new turbo.

so can we get a stainless steel ball bearing from somewhere to replace it with?

can this be used on the r32? i cant see down to my turbo (theres a cover there) and havent really seen any other turbo cars..

i read that Jaycar IEBC thread and seen how you need a solenoid inline to the waste gate, im assuming this would go where the soenloid would go?

cheers, shaun.

This is perfect for an R32.

    • +1. Good thing is people wont tailgate you for a while
    • If you have a RB25DET NEO AWD motor, you will need this: https://www.hioctanedirect.com/ASR-RB26-RWD-Street-Comp-6.5L-Sump-Suit-R32/33/34-and-VL It is made for the AWD motor, but makes it fit a RWD setup and gives you a new pickup. Just one thing, the pickup sits quite forward, compared to a conventional RB25DET RWD motor. This may or may not have contributed to my previous AWD -> RWD shitting the bed at the track.
    • My car is also flex tuned. It's worth mentioning it (the LS1 ECU) has a 1D table for E85 addition and just uses the ethanol stoich part as the second point of reference. It also as a 3D timing map for Ethanol adjustment. You would think this isn't enough but it works pretty damn well. That said, I wouldn't want it in turbo application. It's like lifting non-natty, or taking meth. It gets you unrealistic results that break down more things going forward. If people used it to make the same amount of power they do on 98 then it'd be one thing. But people use it, crank it up to eleventy million PSI, it doesn't knock - but it pushes the point of failure to another, more expensive thing to break. Every time I see someone make 280kw on 98 and 350kw on E85 on the same equipment I just cry a bit and really wish they would just stay on 98 in that exact scenario. It's bad for you. 
    • This is kind of what I was thinking but the temp sender wire and the two pressure switch wires run through the starter subharnes and I eliminated the two pressure switch wires completely.  @GTSBoy I have a can gauge with unusually bright warnings should the oil pressure fall so the factory light isn't needed. I need to dig out my wiring diagram and see if I can sort this out.
    • It's a valid point. And it is doable with the Nistune. But I'm not inclined to flex it the way Nistune does - certainly not on a Neo ECU. They're already pernickety enough to tune just one one fuel. And of course, I'm not that interested in putting in a Link or similar, on a daily. With the stock ECU, stock looking turbo, etc etc, I still stand a chance of surviving a run-in with the plod. Last time it went over the pits (which was for the transplant, for because of a run-in with the plod), the Nistuned ECU did not even raise an eyebrow. They want to see a stock ECU running the engine, and they are happy to see it do so without the check engine light** on. Never mind that the Nistune is necessary to make the stock ECU work in a different chassis without ABS, TCS, etc. **And they actually provoke the CEL to come on by disconnecting the AFM, to prove that the globe hasn't been pulled!
