oi i was gonna say the blitz sbc id3

or u can also go the hks evc iv

seriously, go look at the information for all of the mentioned boost controllers, then see which one suits u, and u like the look of, depending on price also, u can also get the ricey sbc color.

meh.

so u reckon they are better that avc-r or profec - e?

What about the Hybrid 2-stage electronic boost control?

Has anyone got anything good to say about that little gadget? I bought one simply because it was a good 'cheap' price for a EBC.

Yeah and despite those features they are still a pain in the ass to use and still dont hold boost better than a decent bleeder IMO!!! Go the Blitz...

...i no longer use an AVC-R, but did for 3-4 years with both the std turbo and a Trust turbo. The thing worked extremely well, never spiked, held stable boost. I was vert happy with it.

There have been several instances where ppl claim they have not worked...i just cannot understand how this can be the case. If you understand how they work (which aint rocket science, just read the manual) then they are even easy to setup. The instances where they have not worked 100% have usually been traced back to not being installed correctly, with wrong diameter hose, undesirably long lengths of the incorrect diam hose etc, its debatable whether any EBC woudl work optimally if installed in the same manner?!?!?!?!?!?!?

And they are a very flexible EBC, and the variabel duty cycle works very well as my std wastegate presssure is 0.65bar, and with the AVC-R set to 1.25bar it held boost just fine. So thats 9psi to 18psi and it managed to control boost. Others seem to say that its very difficult for an EBC to increase boost so much beyond what std spring pressure is, AVC-R did it.

Who gives a shit about a gain function when there is a PID loop trimming the boost to the desired level. This is how the autronic boost controller tables work and it is well impressive.

What you really want is a boost MAP, RPM vs Load just like any fuel or timing MAP. This way you can eliminate the wastegate cracking to early.

I dont think you can compare a bleeder vavle to a ebc. ie if your wastegate spring tension is 8psi and you want to run 15-20psi how is a bleeder going to hold the boost further along in the rev range when more and more pressure needs to be bled from the actuator?

If only everything was linear eh..

    • 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.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
