Hey guys,

I am after a boost controller, i would get a blitz dual sbc spec R but they are expansive and rare second hand.

My second two options that im thinking are good are the blitz dual sbc spec S and greddy profec b spec II.

I wanted your opinions on which is better because they are around the same price brand new.

Incase you need to know, my car is a r33 gtst series 2, i have a fmic, full exhaust, enclosed pod filter, r33 gtr fuel pump. I have an apexi power fc waiting to go in and im picking up a z32 afm this weekend.

So after i get the boost controller im gona get it tuned in the coming weeks, which ill have to research what places are good in sydney.

Thanks alot in advance guys.

Ther spec S is an entry level unit and will struggle with a turbo that isnt well setup boost conrol wise, Honestley in the blitz range you would need the spec-r.

the best unit on the market is the IDIII but between the Spec-s and Profec the Profec wins hands down.

i just finished a review on the HKS evc6 in another thread on this page.

Thank you uras i couldnt ask for a better more direct answer.

I dont have a really quick skyline and im not loaded, as much as i would like the best on the market, i might just stick with the profec.

Cheers

I think the Jaycar boost controller has qualities the more expensive ones lack (if you can be botherered to build one although i have heard you can buy them ready assembled).

1. It can totally eliminate any boost going to the actuator until you want it to.

2. Boost is determined by the duty cycle of the injectors and so independent of rpm and also reaction is quicker than measuring boost and then reacting to that.

If you have the time read the relevant bits of the "Jaycar"thread in the DIY section of the Stagea section. I am going to fit mine (and my DAFA and SITC) tomorrow so will have some real experience. A number of Stagea owners (including SK) have fitted them and I haven't heard any negative feedback.

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
