I have used the Autospeed design boost controller (using Norgren valves) on quite a few cars and I have never EVER had a boost spike problem. We run either Datalogit or Motec dash logging on the race cars, so I would have logged it if it had occured. I do mount the 2 valves inside the heat shielding as they like to have a stable temperature. One valve gives good boost control and the other some adjustment of the boost climb rates by limiting the lowest level of boost pressure the wastegate actuator sees. Up to a pre set point (boost pressure), this controls the premature opening of the wastegate.

I have found the Jaycar IEBC to be superior in achieving stable boost, but most of all it enables a totally adjustable rate of boost climb. This is only made possible because the IEBC has the boost solenoid in series with the wastegate actuator. All other EBC's have the solenoid plumbed in parrallel with the wastegate actuator. This means the wastegate actuator always sees some boost pressure and so the solenoid is not in 100% control of the rate of boost climb ie; you get some premature opening of the wastegate.

If you can read instructions and solder components onto a circuit board then the IEBC is the best $80 you will ever spend. There is more info on my experiences (and a few other peoples) with the IEBC and DFA in the Stagea forum.

I've just picked my self up a cheapo ball and spring type bleeder. Its not actually a bleeder, the knob adjusts the tension held on the ball.

 

Should work well as I've had a similiar type before which worked really nice.

hey Cubes, thats the one i am using and i hove found it very good, did you buy it after reading my thread on it here?

how is it going have you used it yet?

hmmm its interesting.. ive got one of those gfb bleed valves ive only had it working for a few days... I set it to 10psi but it was spiking to 12 or so.

I had my car serviced yesterday and they set it to 11psi for me, hasnt spiked once (done 300km so far and im realy trying now to make it spike..)

Its amazing what the professionals can do :D

    • I used to have Walbro 255's when they were a pretty common update. (or were they 044? 040?) In any case I had a dirty tank. I thought the tank was good, but I would find the filter would clog in maybe ~50km of driving. If the issue persists, well, your fuel system or tank has crap in it that the pump is sucking up.
    • Hi. Ok thanks for the info. I/we do not know what tune is on that Nistune ECU so it is why there is stock ECU and that Nistune is for later when the car is done. I have guy who tunes Nistune and other ECU so i will then take it to him to see and properly tune for the car   And for the update. On 99,9% it is bad fuel pump. Which is wierd cuz it is like 2 years old(brand new walbro 255) and that filter (also brand new) was dirty.  I was alwaya pumped premium(100) on very good petrol station so i dont know how is that possible...  
    • Dear folks My family members have 4 different cars : Triton 2015 and Corolla 2011 and Mazda3 2012 and Hyundai Elantra 2014 Looking to buy engine oil funnel spill free What I found are are below  https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BBTTJNKX?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image&th=1 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/145553221359?srsltid=AfmBOoqYBU6Ptw0LU_bAp_k67U3qkF97HHvePkA7iHZw8vUmiwoIRaRr https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09X23TCS5?th=1 Is there a funnel with attachment that fits most cars ? Don't mind to spend for a decent quality  Thx  
    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here
