thinking of buying a blitz dual sbc spec s boost controller £160 :eek:
to get me up to 1 bar , will i need to do anything to the fuelling?
if so what ? £?

or would i be better off getting it unichipped £650 :shock: fitted & rroad
and can the boost controller still be used with a unichip

Thought the Spec S was the dual solinoid version? The Spec R is the single and can hold 1.2 bar as mine does.

Even if I've got the names mixed up the lesser version will do 1.2 bar but will need the other version (exactly the same unit) to do higher.

Anyway thats why I bought the oil catch can off you, so nerr, you sell to pikeys :lol: :lol:


Thought the units were physically the same but it was just the solinoid that couldn't handle >1.2 bar? The box and the packaging is exactly the same (even has the other version on the inside of the outer sleeve)


As for the fueling Q, I think most just make sure its running right - plugs, filter, not running lean etc and the fuel pump is up to it.

oh I am, in fact I'm gonna come round and tarmac your driveway for a seemingly good price that mysteriously costs a lot more when done :twisted: :lol: :lol:



only jesting :D


anyway why so against the Blitz controller? There cheap and chearful units that do exactly what they are supposed to, for 160squid thats a lot better value than an AVCR (unless you can get them really cheap now as well).

I agree though that after a while 1bar won't be enough, but thats always the same

the avcr u can pick up for 200ish on ebay, brand new. i have seen this a couple of times, some company has loads of them and puts em on when can be arsed i guess.

for 40 quid more, i think this will be a better purchase.

Blitz holds boost well but very simplistic......

better off with AVCR if running higher boost levels, ie can have scrabble boost settings ie set more duty when the boost is dropping off higher in the rev range or for different boosts in different gears.....
running 2 much boost in 1st gear in this weather may see you sideways once too often :roll: :twisted: :shock: :D.

For a standardish car though.....blitz good enough, to be fair, for 1 bar......just get a dawes device! and spend the added cash on getting a fuel controller :wink:

I have the AVCR and although a very good unit, I don't think I would buy it again. For one thing, the most important I think, it spikes like a mo fo. I have it set for 0.95 kg/cm with a 40% duty cycle and I have seen it touch 1.18 kg/cm :shock: . That's no small potatoes !! Anyone know how to cure this ?

Anyway, back to topic. From investigations that I have made, the Greddy Profec B seems to be the best value for money on most cars. It is pretty cheap and is reputed to hold boost very well ! It is also very easy to set up.

Just my 13p. Oh, and the reason the dual solenoid is better than the single is that it will hold and control the boost a lot more accurately.

Cheers
