sti ver6 boost

[Pappu1]

yea man mine was sitting around 16 stock standard on my old v6 - altho mine had a vf28 standard. with ur vf23 that should have an ever more slightly better top end i wud say based on it being slightly larger

hopefully the new pill/solenoid does the trick for u bro

PS. HKS EVC are pretty much the best i have ever used - awsumly easy to set and holds boost super solid ;D

[G-unit]

what yous pay for the ebc? also mine has a zerosports ecu so i may even get more psi im not sure but previous owner got 216kw@wheels, even 190-200 is guna be plenty for me, im no racer

[QRAF]

i paid $250 for mine 2nd hand.

you can put as much boost through it as you want.

[Pappu1]

well not more than what ur turbo will handle lol but yea man its good in holding boost.

hey qraf, which evc u got? i bought my evc4 for 300 last year i think

[QRAF]

evc 4 i think its at home so can't just go outside and have a look.

[QRAF]

this is what i got

[Pappu1]

looks evc4.. hmm they are good .. dunno why hks went all complicated and lost the simplicity of the robust evc4 when they went to the newer models

bit like going vista from xp (on 512mb ram)

[T.Rev]

Cant find the pill, but that doesnt mean it aint there..so many tubes! What is the circular thing that looks like a oreo except its white and has foam? bits in the middle which is on one of the lines leading from the tee to the boost solenoid valve?

[G-unit]

yea i have the circle plastic foam thing 2, have no idea what it does

[pl0x]

Think its the atmo pressure sensor?

edit: Nope i'm thinking of something else going to a sensor on its own

[Guest boostcut]

just a q: how do you know the actuator is good? i had a gtx with the internal gate flapping in the breeze and still made 11psi. connected the actuator up and wound the boost gauge out past 30psi and fucked it,

test the actuator with a mityvac or some sort of hand held vac pump, even a syringe will work.

[G-unit]

have tried dv8ers boost pill and solanoid with no luck,still a massive 0.5bar or 7psi,have taken some more pics of the pipes etc,could it be that the blue silicone hose is 2 big?

and also my ecu,does anyone know about these?apart from been a zerosports ecu

[funkytown]

take the cover off and take a pic - probably like my old v3/4 one. which did lots more boost and fueling, no speed cut.

[G-unit]

ok 2moros job,

[G-unit]

what are these for? both greedy data link units in behind the headunit,1 has turbo and the other had temp on them,any ideas?

[QRAF]

stop being greedy ;D

Do you have any greedy gauges? or have any?

[G-unit]

have hks gauges

[QRAF]

no idea sorry looks like data link for the greedy gauges but if you don't have any not sure the gauge could of been stolen?

[G-unit]

possbly i guess, this car has had some $$$ spent on it before me

[Guest]

is it just me or is the solenoid pipes back to front??

yea, u cud be right... Gunit... on yr boost noid swap the two hoses around n c if that helps

[gazzy2000]

[G-unit]

ok will do, dun a ecu reset and got code 32,3 slow 2 fast, when the solanoid is bolted on the fat black hose on the bottom, is that not how its ment 2 be?

the one on the bottom of teh noid goes to the Turbo 'T" joiner (with pill etc) the one on the side of the noid (on a right angle) goes to inlet hose (the bleed off)

[G-unit]

ok will unplug the ecu reset plugs and swap the hoses over
