Guys this little gadget is the KICK my GTT needed!!!

Car feels so much quicker and just kicks in boost as soon as u touch the accelelator!

Winds up very nicely and holds the boost hard.

I'm not too mechanically wise but as a driver, I can feel the difference and its only been set to around +-9 PSI from first go.

As you can see... clear winner under my bonnet... and it took only about 5 minutes to install... mainly because my hoses were there already connected to the Profec EBC unit thing so it was clear from there what to do.

Also, I payed on Friday, got it today (tuesday). Pretty much next day delivery!

Thanks SidMark!

36 pages is well deserved for such a cheap, simple, effective product! Like Alien said... i've set mine to 7psi (no mods) instead of doing the solanoid trick, and because it is not a bleed system, it winds on boost so much quicker than before!

I boost at about 2200rpm at 7psi, and the stock setup would boost at 3000rpm at 5psi (dual stage stuff).

i bought one off ebay a few days ago but it wasn't the turbotech, looks exactly the same.

this thing is the best $30 performance mod i have made, my car was running the GFB unit and it worked s__t spiking all over the place. after i installed it my car held boost to 18psi like an EBC im just wrapped with it and it boosted so much faster than i expected about 2200 rpm.

Should be taking to track soon.

Heh.. it's not a Turbo-smart... This guy makes all these on his own! I beleive he goes over it and checks the mechanism before sending it out, so i'd expect that he's probably a bit swamped making and sending them while working his other full-time job. =-]

i bought one a couple of months ago but only just got around to putting it in. I still have to make a few changes but the one trouble i have is that it is overboosting really bad...

I put my foot down and it will go up 13 - 15psi then drop down and hold at around 9 1/2psi

I have checked the lines and they are about as short as i can make them with very little angle to any of them ??? any advice would be appreciated.

Cheers Leigh

A mob called JRD have copied the design and are flogging them of $5 cheaper than marks.

It says something about the quality of the design if there are already cheaper knock off's floating around

Hey guys,

Has anyone heard from Mark lately? I brought a unit from him two days ago, emailed him twice and have heard nothing.. I need the unit by tomorrow as the car is going to the mechanics for a variety of other things and i wanted to get it all done.

    • If you are fine with China turbos, Maxpeedingrods makes a bolt on turbo. Ive had mine for two summers now and it seems to be holding up ok. 
    • Howdy all Im in a little predicament and wondering what everyone’s thoughts are? I’ve had my long block rebuilt and am in the market for a turbo due to my old one having metal shavings from crank bearings (cause of rebuild) go throughout the turbos oil lines and there wheel has a little play. I’m not really aiming for any power, just trying to keep it as oem as possible, but I can’t find a turbo that’s built for the stock ecu or find something that would be a standard replacement. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions 
    • How's everyone going? Just a shout-out introducing myself. I'm James, I live on the north side of Brisbane. I bought an R33 that had been left to rot in someone's front yard for 14 years. Apparently, it has immobiliser/fuel issues. Long story short, it's suffering from a seized engine, plus whatever else turns up once it runs. The car is pretty good considering it sat for so long. It pretty much died after being imported. It has a bunch of Jap parts and a full Top Secret body kit. It's painted Fiat Turchese Festival, or aqua blue if you're not French. Another project to throw money at!
    • So the clockspring is responsible for the indicators cancelling on their own? I thought that was the function of that white thing in the center (any idea what it's called?)
    • Can you log IAT? Whilst WTA coolers have their place, doing any sort of sustained run is not one of them There are fixes that slow down the heat soak, like ice boxes, which don't last that long, and interchillers, which are fairly expensive, up grades to the WTA cooling radiator, which may require a bigger pump, and upgrades to the reservoir size,  and upgrades to the cooling fans, but, it all still heat soaks, and takes ages to come down in hot weather  For a turbo, that isn't locked into WTA like my PD blower is, can you not possibly swap to a nice air to air intercooler????, it would be better for sustained runs then, and have alot less things that could go wrong in my opinion
