Noz Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 the 58 relates to duty cycle. not sure past that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barneybrendan Posted June 4, 2012 Author Share Posted June 4, 2012 duty cycle huh.each number 1-100 relates to kg/square cm,that need converting to psi so i can work out what 1.2 bar actually is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashbuster Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 keep turning it up? dont you have a boost gauge bud? i have a blitz i color and i have it set on 58 which gives me 1.25bar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barneybrendan Posted June 4, 2012 Author Share Posted June 4, 2012 got a boost gauge .hit just under 1.1 bar at 58.Got to try it again tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashbuster Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 yeah just keep trying it bud, when its set at 58 my boost gauge and my i-color both say 1.25bar so it might vary slightly what do you have your gain set to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barneybrendan Posted June 4, 2012 Author Share Posted June 4, 2012 gain?..is that the setting you do in the begining as a general; setting.if so thats at 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashbuster Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 im not sure mate because mines different, i have a separate controller coming from that box that i use, but yours should have gain i think mines set to 25 or 20 its how paul set it i just left it the same as he set it and it pulls like a complete different car lol not sure what it should be on tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barneybrendan Posted June 4, 2012 Author Share Posted June 4, 2012 cheers ash i will have to double check in the morning how i set it to what it is now then .Im sure ive missed something.It pulls well but not really any difference from before fitting the controller.

ashbuster Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 change the gain mate and higher the psi to 1.2bar i left mine on 1.25bar because thats how paul had it on his car and his cars fine, if my turbos fail then its an excuse to go small single so it doesnt bother me too much increase the gain too but im not sure whats the safe limit if it mattered with the gain? big difference tho and i have to have the trac off now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barneybrendan Posted June 4, 2012 Author Share Posted June 4, 2012 (edited) looks like i will just have to play around with it until i find a sweet spot then.Just to add my smic is very tired ,would this be holding my boost back at all.

carlmhtt Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 I have mine set between 55-58 and gain between 10-18. It's going to vary slightly on different cars depending on various factors but somewhere between these settings should result in 1.15-1.2 bar. If its cooler wether you may get occasional spikes to 1.3 bar in the higher gears. It's probably best to have at least two settings to compensate for the hot and cold ambient temps.

barneybrendan Posted June 4, 2012 Author Share Posted June 4, 2012 cheers need to turn the gain up then on mine.Mines auto aswell,going to turn od off tomorrow and try it out again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashbuster Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 turn trac off too if you have it on , if its anything like mine it will get annoying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Welsh-Stealth- Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Really helped having somebody sat along side in the passengers seat for me. Can quickly work out what works for you saves stopping starting& forgetting where you are. Can play with the gain & 1-100 boost settings to find what best suits Think manual recommends gain 20 for 2JZGTE? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashbuster Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 i dont blame you lol but like welsh stealth posted, would be better if you could have someone in the passenger seat with you i like passengers, i like seeing there face go white. my misses screamed and started crying i could imagine her in jamie's lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
