I found a good cheap boost controller for $22!!!

[lastlineofdefence]

i can vouch for jrdsports boost controller, 2 words (its awsum.)

Anyone else used the jrd ones?

Same quality?

[aym23q]

got my Turbotech, all in under a week.

put it in, no joke only took me 2 adjustments and its now holding at 10psi perfectly.! boost shoots up like a switch and just freezes on 10!

1st gear is a waste now since the revs shoot up so quick im only in 1st for about 1 second!

Best mod for under $50 EASY

He must be busy as. Never spoke to the guy, never replied to my emails. But paid him and the thing was at my door within a couple of days. Cant complain. smooth

i bought mine thru ebay and paid thru paypal. comes heaps quicker compared to wat other pplz hav said. but yeah extra $7 i tink lol.. but ive jus bought another one yesterday will let ya's kno

[Zappn]

Installed mine today and have been testing for about 2 hours

I just can't get the boost down on it, it's currently pushing around 12 psi at about 90% throttle.

I've got the bolt in just enough so that I can see the spring only just move through the little hole.

I'm after about 9 psi.

I thought it could be a leak as the tube connections weren't so great so I used some zip ties and they're tight as now.

Heres some pics, does everything look okay? It's a 34.

looks like someone stole ur r34, either that or u didnt post pics

One of the lines going into the solenoid goes to what I think is the BoV line, the other is blocked off with a screw.

The connection on the bottom of the controller goes to the nipple coming out of pipe that leads from the turbo to the intercooler.

The connection on the side of the controller goes to the wastegate actuator.

As far as I can tell it's all setup correctly, it just doesn't let the wastegate see enough pressure.

In the line coming from the turbo there is a brass fitting inside the tube, starting to wonder if this could be dropping pressure.

[NewKleer]

yep, try use a normal bit of hose.

dude just email him at [email protected] ? think that was it. just say how much for a thing and hell say x, this will be your number . i eamiled him there he replied through another persona "simark" but yeah he got it said 35 delivered and i sent money and email that was it. answered my first email but not the rest, but who cares unless something went wrong, seemed safe enough to me gave me a order number and everything

[jeffworld2]

zappn where does the hose on the top nipple of the boost solenoid go? looks like that could be it to me cant really see but maybe its set up wrong. the hose from the opposite end of the controller to the screw should go straight to the intake after the turbo somewhere..like a cooler pipe or something, the side hose goes to the wastegate. follow the lines and make sure thats whats happenin my rb25 holds at 7psi atm as clutch is cooked, so 12 is a bit much. maybe neo is different the setup looks similar though

Oh dear ... I just lost the spring into my engine bay!! The ball bearing didnt get to far, but I searched everywhere for the spring and I cannot find it Any way of getting a replacement spring or am i just going to have to fork out again for another unit?

Wow, im a dumbass

[Thunderbolt]

^^^ Just try to get a generic spring.

Length: it should be enough to hold the ball in place without too much preload while knob is out most of the way.

Stiffness: Nothing too stiff if you are running standard boost or a little above.

That is my opinion anyway. I am not liable for anything that may go wrong as a result of this.

[Zappn]

I think it was the restrictor in the hose causing too much boost.

Sits at around 8psi when giving it a bit and goes to about 10psi when flooring it.
