Hi fellas

Im in the market for the boost controller and would like to hear your thoughts.

What do you recknon is the one that stands out appart from apexi.I was having a look at Blitz SBC Spec S which is single solenoid boosting upto 1.2 bars. Seems very good, the down side is being a single solenoid.If you've got any suggestions please advise me of it

Thank you

I recommend the GReddy Profec B-Spec II.

The cheapest JDM EBC and it holds boost well. Comes with bells & whistles such as peak boost recording, gain settings, real-time boost reading (like a digital boost gauge).

However it is only single solenoid. Shouldn't be a problem unless you're going to be running huge PSI.

i run a Blitz SBC-iD, holds up to 2.5bar and it's dual solenoid.

So far have had no issues what-so-ever and it mounts very nicely in an R32 ashtray to keep prying eyes in the dark. Kind of nice that it has so many options and that you can pick them up used for about 300$

I bought it because everything in my car must be controllable from the interior and a manual boost controller doesnt offer that. It's a wonderful little toy purely because of that feature alone.

Don't know from experience, but I've heard good things about the dual solenoid version of the one you're talking about. Blitz SBC Spec R. Autobarn have them retailing for $799, and the Spec S for $599, but I know you can get the Spec R (dual) delivered for $500 if you do your research :)

    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
    • and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.  
    • Oh, you are right. But, in Australia E10 is based on 91RON fuel and ends up being 94RON. Hence it being the cheaper option for economy cars. The more performance oriented cars go for the 98RON fuel that has no ethanol mixed in. The only step up we have left then at some petrol stations is E85.
    • There is a warning that "this thread is super old" but they ignore that anyway...
    • With 10% Ethanol, we're talking 2-3% fuel consumption difference. The emissions reductions and octane boost in my opinion far outweigh this almost non existent loss.    My tanks sitting at 80%. Luckily that should go down fast as I'm on vacation again for the next two weeks.
