Hey guys need help setting up my boost controller. I can seem to get it to run anymore then 0.4 bar of boost. Have a gt3076 with 38mm external gate.

Any help would be much appreciated.

What settings should I be on?

Here are the instructions on how to install it to an internal gate and an external gate. Makes a world of difference when its wired up properly :)

I have the newer one to that it's the digital one and it's silver.

Yeh I have it plumbed right it's just the settings I just can't understand them.

SET is how much boost you want

GAIN simply put it, too much and boost will spike too little and it's lazy

Newer Profecs also have the Start boost, which works similar to the GAIN

if nothing is happening, you've plumbed it wrong

Oh ok well when I turn the controller off it goes unlimited boost. When on it runs .40 bar. I'm surprised that there is a .40 bar spring lol who wants to run. Like 6psi wtf

Sounds like you've plumbed it wrong already

When it's off it should only be gate pressure

Sounds like you have the NC and NO mixed up, try swapping the fitting into the other hole if it has one.

You have an external gate, why don't you just swap in a heavier spring? No need for an electronic controller really...

yes and no, the gate cracks open a touch before it reaches its defined gate pressure (if you want to call it that) running an EBC and utilising both top and bottom ports can keep the gate closed a little longer giving you a flatter boost response, instead of gentle ramp

I tend to like to let it spike a little and then the boost to settle, but that's just me :)

    • Thanks for your insight, it being basically useless will impact my decision for sure. I thought it may help the engine breath better I guess. But then again, I have also been told that tuning an RB20DE is also not worth it. Exactly, we follow EU Regulations. There is a bit more leeway on older vehicles. My Porsche 924 came without a cat from factory and managed to pass, they still mentioned that I have quite high emissions on it though.
    • My apologies, I stand corrected. Thanks for registering to mention this! And thank you for actually reaching out to the council to clarify. This is the sensible thing to do and the opposite of what I was alluding you were doing. I may have seen too much outrage and hate being fueled on the internet and it has made me a somewhat cynical old man. Sometimes it is easy to forget that there are real people behind websites and accounts. In my defence, CarExpert and CarExplore do read quite similarly at a glance. I shall try and do better in the future. (Please stick around to get the latest scoops on dealing with old Nissan shitboxes )
    • Don't bother. The poor little RB20 doesn't make enough gas flow to challenge the flow capabilities of even the littlest cat, and you won't make any extra power, and all you'll do it soot up your rear bumper. Plus....is Malta not runing under Euro regs?
    • Hey Daniel, sorry to hear that and thanks for posting up for us at a really hard time I only knew SmoothLine through the forums, we never met as we are based in different states, but when he was most active on here he was quite a while back so not many of the current crowd might remember him. I am pretty sure he was active in the Queensland SQU club but that is defunct now too (times are changing and we are all getting older). Farewell SmoothLine!    
    • Turns out depending on whether the car was equipped with TCS or not there are different signals coming to the dash, meaning there are different speedo clusters.  Wired in a speedo calibrator box from aliexpress and now works fine.
