Hello,

I have read just about all the posts about the Dawes device and have seen all the warnings about fitting these on a JDM.

But, as I am not wanting to up the boost pressure, but simply wanting to remove spiking and increase the spool up time, can I fit one using the 1.5mm bleed hole as per the instructions found on this BBS?

The car has a free flow downpipe (Zerosports) and is due to have a decat centre and a Magnex backbox (unless peeps advise otherwise).It also has an induction kit fitted (also Zerosports).

i have one on mine 97 wrx
i havent changed any bleed holes although i bought it second hand so i cant say if its pre modded

i also initialy fitted mine to remove spiking, and it worked perfectly for the cause, then i turned the boost up lol

Would you say the hole is 0.5mm or 1.5mm? Could you have a look sometime for me.

Also, do you have an af meter or a knocklink?

Is spool up at 3500 - 4000 normal for this car. Thats when it comes on boost, normal or not, as I have read that others get spool as low as 2500

mine was about 3000ish if i rember correctly
but my turbo exploded and i replaced it with sumthing diffrent

4000 sounds very late to me
ill try to have a look at the hole 2morow for you

i have a 1mm drill bit here and it wont go through the hole
so im asumeing its a 0.5 hole

will i get a faster spool time with a 1mm or 1.5mm hole?
