Hey, I'm new to the import scene, and have recently purchased a 32 w/rb25det as a daily (wanting to keep it legal and just as a daily, not chasing massive hp.). The car came with a Blitz boost Controller, but it was not 'plumbed in' (previous owners words). I have managed to read the manual online, and get it displaying boost pressures, but I have a strange feeling that I've either; misinterpreted the instructions and hooked it up incorrectly, or I have hooked it up correctly and set the unit incorrectly. I have intentionally set the limit low -12psi- (so as to avoid damage to my engine or turbo), but I don't think it's good for the car to do what it's doing now. The big problem I'm having is that, when I accelerate hard, the car backfires and sputters and seems to cut boost. It is reading that I am getting up to 18.9psi, and I'm assuming that it's not actually running that pressure. My two main questions are: What boost pressure does a standard rb25det run at (and what is safe for it to run to on standard everything-ecu, internals and turbo etc)? And, could anybody recommend a tuner/ mechanic who could tune up my car/ program my blitz boost controller properly? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, That Nick Guy (SAU Noob.)
