ok .. so it was my birthday today, so my present to me was a G-reddy Profec B Spec 2 Boost controller.. seems simple enough to fit, but i have 2 Q's to the people that have these in their cars already... Trance....

1. how much do you need to be watching this little bugger? if im going to be monitoring it loads then it'll affect where i place the unit on the dash.. either in clear view or down by my shifter if it isnt constantly crucial.

2. can i run my Boost guage off the same pressure pipe that comes from the intake manifold to the Greddy Boost control display Unit, i cant see why not.. i just wanna check though.

Happy Birthday man!!! 8) Nice toy you got yourself.

1. Once its setup you don't really need to monitor it. It just acts as a second boost gauge basicaly. So, its not crucial to watch it all the time. It can display your highest boost for a second or two once you tap off so it easy to check on just when you tap off. It will also beep and flash red when you overboost so as long as it somwhere in the corner of your eye it will be fine. You can even set it to lower the boost if you overboost so once its setup u don't even have to look at it and you know you will be safe ;)

2. Ya, thats fine thats is how mine is connected up.

Oh, and its a great toy! Well worth its money :)

I fitted the Greddy EBC , that was .. well the easy part. As for actually using it... this thing is way to techical for me, luckily i have a Gary :)
Now i can feel the boost alot sooner creeping in smoother from 3600rpm VS before the EBC was fitted.. 4500rpm quite a difference
