Just got it installed this past weekend... and all I have to say is...
*takes deep breath* WHOA! *exhales* I haven't gotten a chance to play with it enough yet... but yesterday, set one of the channels to boost at 18 psi. OMG... as soon as I hit the throttle... I boosted past 20 psi... Can we say boost spike? LOL There was so much pressure, the hose running to my BOV popped off. I was scared on my way home from work because I thought I broke something... I could barely hear my turbo spool and I would only boost around 3 psi. So I didn't make the discovery until I got home... I then fixed it by using a better clamp. Anyway... I thought that b4 I had this EBC, I was addicted to boost. But with this new toy... BOOST ADDICTION just totally got redefined for me. Well, I have to play around with it some more because at 15 psi, I still get boost spikes. I'm thinking the boost gain might be too high. At 12 psi, I don't get spikes at all. Anyway, for those planning on boosting and deciding on which EBC to get... I'd say get either the Blitz SBC i-D or the Greddy Profec B. |

Do you have a 3s or just the turbo?
I am waiting for my manual, i figure i'll leave it at 10psi it should get me up to 240 at the crank and that should suffice for daily driving. -------------------- |

I have'nt booted more than 12psi, but good lord. 12 psi feels insane.
I'm using the Apexi Super AVC-R. I'm running 8psi on the daily for work. On the weekends when i go **** arround, 12psi kicks in nice. This post has been edited by sphinx: Mar 16, 2004 - 1:29 PM |

That's exactly how I felt when I first got my car. With no EBC... it was boosting at 12 and felt insane. But with even more boost... it's feels even more crazy... almost as crazy as my brother's MR2. Seriously... BC's make a BIG difference. Now all I have to do is go down to the tracks and get my **** dyno'd. lol. |

I'm only asking because my psychic powers are on the fritz, my apologies. Jeez, i love, just love it. Id be afraid of boosting 12 because its close to cut and if it spikes or creeps, gives you little leeway. This post has been edited by Supersprynt: Mar 16, 2004 - 3:29 PM -------------------- |
