That's why she doesn't get to know where the high boost/low boost button is!

I must have misunderstood what you were saying. I'll have to study the owner's manual for the boost controller. Greddy Profec B II.

I've used the Greddy Profec-B. It's one of only 2 Greddy prodcuts I will actually use. There is a button you push that switches between your high boost and low boost settings.

I believe the MAF has the IAT sensor on there too, and that's a useful sensor.

And Pete, you didn't go with 3mm seals? Either way you still should be good for awhile, you've got plenty of fuel capacity. I'm gonna have my car down there on the dyno in a few weeks for my tune, not expecting anything too crazy but you might want to check it out.

yeah i run the profec-b and it's really simple to set up and just like rotarygod said there's a high and low so set what 2 settings you want and from then on all you need is to decide when to push that button to get you into high boost. Now if you really want to spend some $$ and get a great boost controller get the e-01, you wont even need a boost guage if you have that thing.

Here's a link to a dyno from an RX-7 running the GT35R. 427 rwhp at 1 bar. Look at the torque.

Nice gains up top, but the power/torque really don't start to happen until north of 5k RPMs.

Do you think the turbo has to be this big/laggy to get the necessary flow up top?

I'll have to check that. I know we machined the rotors but the invoice said 2mm. I just emailed Scott so we'll have to wait for his response.

Sap: The car isn't that laggy. Well, it is if you drive it like an Accord, but then so is a stock Renesis below 5000rpm. On that note, I'm making more power at 5300rpm than stock. The run was done in 3rd gear so 30mph~3000rpm, etc. I haven't had a chance to play with the car a whole lot, but it looks like it starts to build boost beginning at 2800rpm. I don't yet know when it hits 10#.

I run a profec-b spec II, and to be honest I'm not all that thrilled with it. Interface quirks aside, and it's probably more the turbo's fault, it's slow to react when I'm off the gas in gear and then floor it.

anyone with the greddy kit care to post their profec b II settings? I don't think I've ever found any on here.

and that FD would be sick fast if it could hold that tq to a 9000rpm redline!

Local SRRT4 owners use the GT35R to get into the 600whp club at around 20psi! GT35R is a great turbo if you plan on really pushing the boost. I've always wondered about the lag.

I can relate this story of note. I raced an SRT4 with a GT35R one time (although I didn't have a clue as to this 'upgrade' until after I been whipped like an egg white). From a roll, the T618Z boost comes on a lot sooner than the GT35R. I pulled about half a car on the SRT4 until that monster spooled-up. At that point he left me like I was sitting still.

i know smc has a meth system that actually adjusts its spray per lbs of boost to ensure protection throughout the whole rpm range.... also if you use the meth as an additive to keep the temps and what not down it will make boost a lot safer... if you use it as part of octane boost, accoutn for it as an actual alternative for fuel, then you can run into trouble if your woman runs the car with out the tank full... nice numbers and i would deff go for the insurance of meth injection

i look foward to the dyno charts in the near future
