No one has ever fitted any boost controller to a skyline. Prove me wrong! (hint, search)

Do u have a boost gauge with it?

If its the one im thinking its just a simple turn up and turn down?

[tndesigns]

yes it has the gauge with it and the gauge is working fine

The boost however it jolts and backfires like nothing else once i put the stock one back in it runs fine?

seems you're not too sure what you're doing.. I suggest just keep the stock one in there for a while till you have an idea of what you're doing.

Takes a while to get to the installation instructions...Performance car for only $1800! I had to pay all of $4500 for my RS4T (mind you I've spent about $15k on it so far)!

Thats why im asking for some help.....?

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

okay, I'll play nice

Post up a photo of how you've connected it. I have a feeling it's hooked up completely wrong

[tndesigns]

Thanks it was i had the presure line connected to the pipe connecting to the pod filter all connected right now?

Hey also any ideas why my gauges turn off when headlights are on and no there not connected to the light switch just normal power and earth? dodgy brought car wiring i think LOL

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

that line to the pod filter needs to be blocked off..

You need the line from the OEM hotpipe to go into the boost controller and then into the turbo's wastegate actuator. Also it appears you've connected your gauge wrong, hence it turns off..

most gauges have

-ve -> goes to ground

+ve -> goes to igntion +ve

+ve illumination -> goes to light source, easiest it your cigarette ligher's light.
