Killing Wastegate Creep

I have played around with various methods of trying to bring boost on quicker. (1jzgte)

1) turbotec T $25 off ebay. dodgy as shit no effect on boost time

2) turbo smart dual stage boost controller payed $50 second hand would have been so shitty if i paid the $200+ retail for it. Would cause boost spikes and for me to hit boost cut even when it was set on the lowest (most open) setting.

3) The pressure relief valves mentioned on here from autospeed website (also used in "hyperboost" controller)

I did not have success with these either, basically boost was either building too quick and it hit boost cut or it wouldnt have any effect. That being said multiple people in this thread have said they have had success with them so it could just be me.

Moral of the story. Something that claims to bring boost on quicker that is a ball and spring type dont waste your time with.

I ran the turbo tec on my R33, had the turbo spooling around 100 - 200RPM sooner on to full boost. Unsure how you had it setup... :S

I ran a turbo tech for a month or so but because my turbo is so small there was no increase in boost response over anythign else I used. Everything brought on boost just as fast as having the the wastegate reference port disconnected.

Before that I had run a turbosmart bleeder, a controller I made, then an ebay bleeder, then the turbo tech.

The Turbosmart bleeder and the ebay copy of the same thing were the worst of the lot (spiked, altered peak boost with ambient temp, shit adjustment), the one I made worked fine but was ugly, the turbo tech worked ok but obviously has no incar adjustment and was affected by ambient temp changes to the tune of 3psi peak difference from morning to daytime ambient temps.

The current EBC I run smokes all of the above with ease. Easy to use and repeatable peak boost levels with no difference due to ambient temps so far.

i had it connected all correctly just had shit results

i still have the hyperboost/pressure relief valve floating around so i might try it again and see if i can get any decent results

Does your 1J have twins or a single?
