New Boost Controller...... Help

Recommended Posts

Hey ladz,

i have just bought a Greddy PROFEC B 2 Electronic Boost Controller, and im now gonna ditch my good old Turbosmart Bleed Valve type Boost Controller...

seen as though my Turbosmart one is already installed, does that mean i can just replace that Turbosmart gate with the Profec 2 Soleniod and use all the existing connections?

if so this means i can simply take out the Turbosmart one and just put the Profec Soleniod in its place and use all the existing tubing....

correct or incorrect?

any advice much appreciated..

Sounds right.. I just got one of these as well for the s15. There are three ports NO, NC, COM. COM goes to the actuator. Boost source goes to NO assuming you're running an internal gate. Make sure all the plastics caps are taken off the solenoid too if you got it new. I ran some new vacuum lines because before my mbc wasn't mounted, but the solenoid needs to be mounted to the body of the car and my existing lines are too short.

Download the english manual from www.greddy.com. I read it a few times and it helps with tuning it.

No.

The bleed will be tee'd to bleed boost off. The ebc has to be inline and will likely have the in and out marked on the case of the solenoid. In is the boost source, out goes to the actuator/wastegate

Make sure your boost source is coming from a cooler pipe or compressor housing, not from intake plenum. solenoids dont like vacuum.

    • Just ordered those bosses, hopefully that does the trick thank you very much everyone for your replies it's really appreciated  
    • to have this type of adjustment possible with a curve as I wish, what budget (engine) should be planned?  
    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
