Hey ppls,

I going to make up for myself this weekend an Autospeed DIY Boost Control Kit which controls boost level and wastegate creep via two knobs.

I recieve very good prices from Pneumatics suppliers due to the industry I work in, so I'm wondering if anybody wants me to make them up a kit while I'm at it....

I wil figure out prices once I have price from my suppliers, and let you know, but right now I'm just feeling the water as to whether anybody would like one.

It will be on an aluminium bracket, with all parts required for simply plugging into your car, you may just have to extend some boost pressure lines, depending on where you mount the system.

You can read all about the system here http://autospeed.com/cms/A_0670/article.html

and it will have the extra valve from the second article also.

So, any takers?

Okay, I've got prices back, and it looks like it going to be about $150 complete as you see it in the picture.

The little check valve is an expensive little sucker.

Kit will come complete and ready to bolt up.

You will only need to cut the hose and hook it up.

Please advise if you are interested so I can order parts.

I will have photos of my set-up after the weekend.

Little side note.

I'm not making much is any money out of this.

I just figure that if I'm making one for myself, and I know another couple of people who want them, then I can help out.

Bass Junky,

I may be informed incorrectly, but this device is simply a bleed valve?

Im just trying to get my head aroudn what exactly it does, and how it works?

I found the article to not supply the information I was after.

Thanks,

Essential.

Okay,

The second valve is basically a bleed valve, but the first one is a valve which doesn't let the second one see any boost until a set pressure.

A 10 psi wastegate spring will be half open at 5 psi. If you stop the wastegate seeing any pressure until a set rate, you bring boost on much faster.

that's what this set up does.

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
