they have steel wheels, otherwise standard :huh:

only GTR standard turbos that are steel exhaust wheels are, N1 or nismo turbos. the R32 R33 R34 are all ceramic exhaust wheels.. unless they are a N1 or A/M set. :D

i fitted one to the S14 today need a gauge for it.. so waiting till end of the week.

mark sent me mine in around 3 working days from payment.. quite quick.. :wacko:

maybe groper's referring to the fact that he either has one of the 'factory' steel wheel turbo's or he's had the ceramic ones replaced with steel wheels... possibly...

ok like the 100 other posts before. i purchased one of these boost controllers. i already have a gfb valve already set up on the car and was installed by the previous owner. could someone give me a quick run down of how to install the new boost controller in replace old the gbf, is it just a straight up swap.. disconnect the hoses from gfb then connect them to the turbo tech one?? or is there any change or extras i need to be concerned with. im installing it asap so any imediate help would be awesome!

thanks

so anyone posting a DIY mod for retards or what ?

mine should get in soon so i can hit up 10psi. i dont know what it will look like or how it will work bt if its shithouse on a gear change i will want to change it.

Yeah man is that a question?

Look at the link in post 1449 on this page for a "DIY guide for Retards" ha ha

i run mine without the hole and have no boost problems whatsoever with it .

it spikes a bit early in the rev range but after that its quite good

That looks like quite a bit of a spike though 16.5psi down to 12.5, did stock boost on your car hold a flatter manifold pressure?? looks like it fluctuates quite a bit.

hey guys,

i just installed this boost controller in the other day.

it seems pretty good now that i have drilled the whole but 1 thing i dont

understand is that i wind the nut all the way up (lowering boost) yet my

boost guage shows .7bar to .75bar BUT if i was to wind it down (up the boost) my guage will show .8 .9 1 depending on how high i set it, so in other words i cant get it to stock boost.

Shouldnt it be showing .5 because the boost

is all the way down???

would this be because the controller isnt installed right or boost guage not reading right.

MODS:

cat back exhaust

pod

atmo BOV

(apexi boost guage)

any1 come across this before???

cheers

    • I much prefer that to an actual oil pressure issue, never would of thought it would of been a volt drop issue but SAU brains win again. Guess ill be turning down the oil pressure limit for the track and hunting some grounds. Ill hopefully update this thread with some high oil pressure and solid ecu voltage logs. 
    • You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster. 
    • Hi. Iam just curisou about this topic. I saw this video. It is about Greddy Type FV2. I know that BoVs are about that sound but how and when to use it? I read some topic here and from what i have understand on stock RB with MAF there will be some "problems" if you use this BoV? It vents the air in to the atmosphere and the MAF on stock car needs this air back in to the intake and not out? Or is it wrong? If so...i saw you can put some adaptor to circule air back...but does that not "loose" that sound? I saw another BoV from Turbosmart and it has two "exhaust" like ports? One is for the stock tubing for letting air back and one is for "sound" and let the air in the atmosphere? Can someone please explain? This is the Greddy one:  And this is the Turbosmart.     THANK YOU!! EDIT: So i read about this topic some more and i if i understand that correctly: That Greddy can function either like BoV or 100% Bypass valve? And that Turbosmart is what they called hybrid so you can adjust what and how many air can be vented out or back in? Is this right? THX!
    • That dirty voltage drop is the culprit I suspect 
    • i cant get them all in 1 screenshot unfortunately as i just dont know how to move things around tbh, but they are all from the same log and the line crosses at the same point for all of them
