Ok, I hate the idea of cheap boost contollers and am a firm believer in you get what you pay for. Having read many posts about these I decided I didn't want one but im slowly being swayed. I have just read the stuff on JW racing site and seems quite convincing.

I have a MY99 with ITG and Full Magnex system, running at 0.9 bar. Trouble is, is it feels a bit lifeless at the moment and I feel a couple of safe PSI might do it. I will eventaully go for a Tek2 when I find more money I have an AFR and boost guage so should be able to judge it safely. :

Question is - how far can I turn it without fuel cut? Which one do I want, normal or deluxe?

Thanks,

Normal will do the job, when I had I was cranked up to 1.2 without problems.

You do have to keep an eye on things when the weather gets cooler though.

 

Mark,

I have a "Race Spec" Dawes MBC for sale. Already trimmed and set up for MY99/00. Only used for a few weeks - went to Tek2 ;-) Mail me offline if you're interested.

Andy.

 

I've got a standard dawes on MY99 tuned to give 17ish psi in fifth gear, approx 1.2 bar, and it runs great - noticably quicker than standard car. Fuel cut comes in about 18.6psi, 1.3 bar
I have been running it for months and no problems, get one!
Jon

 

That will do for me

Andy - incoming!

Get one, they really do allow you to make the car a fair bit faster. Provided your using optimax/sul you can turn it right the way up to near the fuel cut without a worry in the world of det or running lean.

I've currently got a TEC3 ECU but am using a dawes to control the boost. Currently set at about 1.25 bar but I noticed she was creeping up a little this morning when I gave the car a roasting. This suggests the turbo was stuggeling in its current set up - probably had something to do with the decat centre I fitted yesterday Would turn it down but the downpipe goes on soon which will get rid of those hot gases quicker

 

Ta Saxo,

You need to get that DP on there! Hope you're not doing it yourself??!! Mine was very rapid when I put the whole lot on, but then you get used to it
