']you can get a Apexi AVCR, for brand new for $600,

Hey, well the greddy profec spec b ii does the same job

Apexi may have more features but i dont care for features

As long as its reliable and does the same job im happy,

I got a quote around $400 for the greddy boost controller

What do u think.?

If you just want someting cheap and reliable why not go for a BLEED VALVE

almost guaranteed never to break down...works without eletricity too :)

bleed valve is not exactly relibable. a cheap ebc will serve its purpose and be accurate. i got a 2nd hks evc for $250 and it works awesome, i had a problem with it last week but it was just loose wiring. does awesome boost control

for something that needs to be reliable in it's performance such as a boost controller, i think you're best to go for a well known unit.

the jaycar boost control is fine if you have the time and knowhow to set it up, but if you're like me and just want something that you can get fitted and basically have no worries with go for AVCR or SBC idIII.

both can be found for around 570-630 new.

get the profec , or you can get a blitz ssbc for about 400 also .

i got a second hand old blitz ssbc off the forums , here . it didnt work . luckily the guy gave me back most of my money , got a 2nd one of the same type and replaced the faulty control unit . so it cost about 200$ all up and ive got some spares just incase .

I generally email the instructions and pics to ppl, as I can't get the pic's up here (too large). Any ideas?

For anyone else interested, here are the photo's/instructions DAN00H was talking about.

Pics to be read in conjunction with word doc

    • The cam I am actually putting in (a few posts up) is actually smaller than my current one. At least duration/overlap wise. All the chop stuff I hear just sounds like an engine running badly, because it is. I then envision driving it around in 1st gear and being massively sad about it bucking to the beat of said chop. There is an idle video of someone with a similar cam floating around the internet, but mine is a custom cam (so is his) so it'll never be the same, plus the fact exhausts are entirely different. What I want to do is put some bullet mufflers/race mufflers in to replace a couple sections straight pipes that currently replace the two extra cats that I don't need. But this is even further down the line!
    • I can tell you now, when the bracket that the little hydraulic ram attaches to snaps, with a subframe, and V8 from an AMG C63 on it, it sounds like someone letting shotgun off right beside you. It leaves your ears ringing, and a huge thankfulness that you never ever put a body part under something heavy that's only supported by a hydraulic lift...
    • Still not a guarantee fix. I used a high quality butyl-mastiq (the black goo that's not really silicone nor polyurethane, same stuff they use from the factory that just spreads out like melty cheese), and I still get lots of water on both sides of the trunk when raining or washing the car. I also suspect the factory spoiler rubber gasket might not be sealing well, so I'm thinking of adding a thin layer of grey silicone around the bolt holes on both sides and see if that's where it also leaks from. The biggest issue is that these cars don't come with a drain hole on each side like other coupes and hatchbacks.
    • I hate it, but maybe he could paint it Monster jam style and call it...godzilla?
    • Would seem to me to be appropriate to go GTR style bar. There are options with and without N1 vent holes, with the GTR lower lip integral (because FG copy). https://justjap.com/search?q=r32 bumper
