Full exhaust system with decat
Magnecor performance ignition leads
NGK BKR7EIX plugs
Blitz Boost controller Low: 0.5 bar High: 0.9 bar

People on here have used blitz boost controllers in the past and have liked them. Not sure if that is the exact model or not.

cheers lads, might snap it up as £60 is cheap for a good make of ebc kit
Just make sure all the bits come with it. If not contact Blitz as they carry a stock of spare parts and they are not all that expensive. Go for it.
Ah the lad i get jap parts off always makes sure the stuff is owrking and everythign is there, just the fun im gna have fitting it & setting up lol
been chatting to a lad i know and he reckons the single solenoid in them is no good, he offered a mbc is has to me for free til maybe i get a better spec ebc.
i think karl VR4kaos has the blitz duel solenoid boost controller. Nutter_john fitted it for him as part of his upgrade.
Bye for Now!
You would probably be better off with this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BLITZ-DUAL...item35b9f200c0 which is the one Karl and I have. Well pleased with it.
i picked up the ebc for a lot cheaper then he wanted and his gf gave me a boost gauge aswell which he wanted £15 extra for so i did well. Does anyone have a wiring diagram for these?
It has 4 wires. Red, White, Black, Blue.
Also came with an overtake button for the dash
post 17 may help http://www.clubvr4.com/forum/showthr...ontroller-(EBC)
i have a blitz dual manual i can dig out if you think it may help
thats great alan, thanks very much. The guide i was lookign at in the members area seems to be a dead link. Mine is a single solenoid but any manual would help me set it up correctly cheers.
The single solenoid one will be fine for the VR-4. I know of one that used one for a number of years without issue!
The dual solenoid apparently responds a fair bit quicker, but in a VR-4, I would expect the difference to be barely (or even!) noticeable.

Why not become a full member of CVR4 and enjoy the additional benefits membership brings?! Information here.
Looking forward to getting it fitted tomorrow then, presume the in on the solenoid is to come from the inlet ic pipe & the out goes to the wastegate?

and one for the sbc i-d http://www.xspeed.com.au/manuals/Bli...i-D_manual.pdf
This is my model of ebc, id say its the oldest version around ha ha but hopefully does the job.
Wiring Red - Switched 12v
Black - Ground
Blue - Solenoid
White - Solenoid
There is also the little blue port on the rear of the ebc, i presume this is a vaccum line? Just put a hose over it and clamp on, or does a slightly smaller hose have to actually go inside it? just i have got a pile of hoses and wiring with the kit.

That blue port looks like its the push a hose in type
cheers, found a little hard plastic piping that clips inside the blue port, dnt fancy having to run a vaccum hose into the cabin but it has to be done
i forgot to ask aswell, the red wire on the ebc, would it be a swtiched ignition 12 v or a constant?
Last question, on the rear on the ebc it has a small knob that turns & also a little switch that goes left to right?
