hi everyone

am looking to get an electronic boost controller but would like some guidance in what to get abd what features to look for.

i dont want anything fancy or complicated. i looked at the turbosmart e-boost2 and it looks all too hard - i just want to set 2 or 3 boost settings and be done with it.

any suggestions?

I have a DSBC. I upgraded from a SSBC.

These are the predessesors to the SBC Spec S and SBC Spec R respectively.

I found the dual solenoid to be significantly better. I would recommend that one. If I was buying new I would buy the blitz dual solenoid model, which is NOT SPEC S. The dual model is Spec R.. Spec S is single!

When installing it make sure you have all hoses as short as possible and if your car isn't tuned for boost check the settings on the dyno!

I have the DSBC spec R as mentioned above

dual solonoid holds boost perfectly and it has 4 files to set boost and gain...

I drive it daily with the ebc turned off and turn it on when I want to run 10psi

You can pick them up pretty cheaply now and may be a more cost effective option than some of the newer offerings... it doesn't have a nice flashy screen but then again it is easier to hide;)

Just thought i would put some input for apexi

Hay mate i just brought an avc-r and it is total sweet. You can fully control you ramp speed, which allows you to have full control over your boost. It boost very fast and if it overshoots it is only by 0.02 of a bar, which is bugger all in the big picture. I got mine of gR33ddy it was $660 delivered and is black, which blends in with the rest of the surroundings in the car. I wired it all up my self very very hung over and was quite simple if you have a little bit of mechanical and electrical knowledge you too will find it simple and rewarding.

Hope this helps.

If you need assistance in installing it (if you get one) PM me.

Someonestolecc is spot on. The Blitz TwinSBC is real easy, & it just works. Button goes in...high boost. Button goes out...low boost. Homer Simpson could operate it.

MrZac is selling one, snap it up. I'm wishing I hadn't sold mine to cc now ! :)

What about the new I colour from blitz? At first I thought it was a gimmic for more $$$ but reading a short blurb on it it supposedly comes with functions to show water temp/ oil temp/ oil pressure/ fuel pressure and a/f ratio? If it controls boost effectively as well the price tag doesnt seem too bad.

Yeah Blitz DSBC/SBC Type R, Greddy Profec B1 or Profec B2 would be the ones I'll get.

ProfecB1 if you're especially after simplicity, just wire it up and adjust the knobs. One for Hi boost, one for Low boost and the other one to control gain.

ProfecB2 is very similar to the DSBC although DSBC has 4 settings where as B2 only has 3. Both have gain control, display real-time boost with peak & warning function, twin/two solenoids.

I'd get one of those 3 if I had the money. :ph34r: Haha turbotech MBC for me.

    • For these last 7 years of ownership, I've always had to use a small scissor jack under one of the front tow hooks to raise the front just enough so my low-profile jack fits under to reach my subframe jack point. I'm beginning to get annoyed of always having to do this. Are there any lower low-profile jacks that fit under the gtr lip on a dropped car?
    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
