Hi all, just wondering if any of you guys have a Apexi AVCR running on your GTR. My car is only getting 0.7bar boost even though I've wound it up to 1bar/80% duty. If anyone has one please let me know and maybe we could arrange a time for me to have a quick look :(

cheers

Amaru : thanks buddy, got my PFC tuned with Ed a few weeks ago, car goes really well with the new turbo's but now I want to up the boost a bit.

GZ R33: I'll check the cat thanks for the tip...

check your lines for leaks as one of our cars had the same problem. We ran our own and it fixed it. good luck....Paul...DIRTgarage.

Hehe just check the mechanic installed it correctly. 0.7 bar is just actuator pressure so it isn't doing anything at the moment...

The setup is a bit confusing (well for me it was) this document was very useful, despite having the solenoid on the opposite side of the car.

But be careful, when you go out for a drive 80% duty cycle will spike the boost hard!!!! In my opinion turn feedback off and just do runs at lower duty cycles until you start to get the boost you are after.

      Excuse me, but 2) does apply 1) Would also apply if you consider how much is spent in the alternatives. Also there's the option of 3), buy one pre-built that you can put your family in (it's me, it's my car)   That said, I went on a ~500km drive the other day. I didn't use anything more adventurous than 3rd/4th gear at about ~3000RPM and 50% throttle and I was going as fast as anyone has any sense doing on a public road, with enough grip to the point where I didn't want to go any faster. I was obviously under the limit of the current car etc etc. MX5 with 2.5 N/A to achieve the same speed would be more fun for any road scenario. Maybe consider cams. I wouldn't boost it. The use case is just not there and it won't actually make the car more enjoyable unless you really do plan on wringing gears from 1st to 3rd (at least) at 100% WOT on a public road to 150+kmh.

      Great if: 1. You had all of the money for everything else that is required  2. Lived in a country where you could actually do this and drive it legally on the road Sadly, neither applies to me As for the turbo, I am having second thoughts, mainly for engineering/registration legality reasons and insurance  Not saying I've finished doing stupid things that I probably should do to the MX5, but boost, and V8 engine swaps isn't on the cards Strange, but true

      Yes shipping here can be a pain, was about to purchase timing belt replacement kit, but it tends to get expensive due to shipping (and customs if importing from non-EU which the UK now falls under).
