REVIEW

Hi, i promised ben i would write a review/feedback after i installed it so here goes.

I paid my money and got the boost piece in the mail about a day later (props to a great seller)

It was extremely easy to install. If I could do it in less than 5 minutes, anyone can

Stock boost on the r34 is around 5 psi low/ 7psi high (correct me if im wrong). As the boost piece replaces the solenoid, it becomes a constant high of around 10 psi (give or take 0.5 psi). This is better than the constant ground to the solenoid as it prevents the risk of damaging it. Full boost of around 10psi comes on under 3000 rpm (probably a bit less but i'm not very good at looking at the road, speedo and boost gauge at the same time). This then drops down by about 0.5 psi to around 9.5 psi or so.

Overall, its a great purchase for those that only want a little bit of boost increase. In my opinion, its only $20 or so and definately worth it for the gain.

Cheers

I got one of these delivered last week with a similar experience to ecl only on an R33 GTST sedan. 5 mins to install, great very clear instructions and the promised result of 10psi.

And for an added bonus I went to a dyno day today and with only a catback 3" exhaust, R34 stock intercooler and the magic 10psi and I recorded 176rwkw. I am very suprised at the result as there were a couple of stock 33s there that recorded the expected mid 140rwkw for comparison. Big thumbs up. Also there was no detonation but the car was quite rich :D . Big thanks!

I have sold about 14 of these and I have had feedback from about 10 people so far. All except 2 have held 9-10psi as they requested, however 2 people that have had automatics have been seeing around 13-14psi!! I am in the process of sending them more conservative ones.

I find this strange but if I find this to be consistent trend then I will have to have a manual one and another for automatics...

    • If it's for a SR20, make sure it's not the American Poncams, might as well call them Poocams. Had a set in a friend's car, all scuffed up after a few track days. Like the metallurgy Tomei USA used is junk. Went back to JDM OG Tomei Poncams, no issues till now.   Tomei USA is not the real OG Tomei.   Random rant over, fk the US of A, bunch of c u n t s. 
    • Most of the industry in North America either runs on Siemens or Allen Bradley. I have two redundant S7-1500's on my desk right next to me for simulation. Siemens has been losing ground though since Stuxnet, as cybersecurity is a big thing. In my line of work that is federally regulated, you must by law have a cybersecurity management program in place and its audited and inspected every so often.  I work with Emerson PLC's daily (RX3i's) and have done large biogas/refinery projects with their DCS's. Their PLC's are somewhat OK minus the way they do PLC redundancy (You have to download on both PLC's separately every time you make a change )  As for their DCS's... you'll be limited financially first before anything else stops you. Costs are exorbiant at roughly 10x what it would cost you to do with any other system (e.g AB PAC).  1990's, those suckers are brand new haha! Kraft-Heinz (An old client when I use to work for an ESP) still runs Siemens TI505 PLC's from the mid 80's. Ohh how I don't miss working with those... you could only do a certain number of online downloads until it's "Change" buffer would be full and you would then need to go offline to do a full download. There was no warning of when this was coming up and it generally would happen when you would go in at 2am to make changes before production -_-.     
    • Unfortunately, not only is that not the case, one of the main "Selling points" of safety over comms is they clearly state in writing that there's no need to segregate safety networks from non-safety networks. It always gets intermingled with everything else on an ICS/OT network. 
    • Hello. I have an a31 cefiro but since I am in Turkey we have a CA20S engine. I did some research. Then I found that I can swap with a ca18 but when I heard that it has the similar substructure as the s13. I thought I can swap with an sr20 because the sr20 was used with the s13. So can I easily swap the sr20 on my cefiro or is it difficult?
