jagman Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I have one fitted to 3 separate cars - they work and are accurate and simple to operate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 The built in boost cut control is useful, as a boost controller though it is quite basic according to the spec list. Worth spending a bit more to get an EBC with a gain function to control how the wastegate opens, this can make a significant difference to how quickly the turbos spool up. There's this HKS EVC 6 for sale in the classifieds section, these are one of the best EBC's available. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?313463-HKS-EVC-6-Boost-Controller-(NEW) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jza800 Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 does the gizzmo ms-2 not have the gain function???? as i can read from the manual, it has? am i wrong or???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mk4Gaz Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 It does have both duty and gain control, pretty sure they also have a built in fcd. I fitted a gizzmo msibc in my mr2, and it was a cracking bit of kit. Very simple to set up, and very accurate too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagman Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 The display is clear and bright , (dim available) can be set to various units , acts as a boost gauge , it is very accurate ( verses dyno plot) , the voltage fuel cut is to 0.00 voltage settings so highly accurate , although adjustment requires unplugging to access. The case is very sturdy thick aluminium and is a durable unit , the rectangle shape needs more effort to mount than a circular one . Turbo timer works but needs more wiring instal time . The solenoid appears durable and fast acting . Has enough settings (6) in memory and gain adjustment simple . All in all a good little unit despite the naff name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jza800 Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 is it posible that you can explane this a Little bettere,what you mean aboutt that: the voltage fuel cut is to 0.00 voltage settings so highly accurate , although adjustment requires unplugging to access Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagman Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 The voltage is say 3.54 not 3.5 it's accurate and adjustable to two decimal places , the adjustment is by a small screw adjuster in the back but you need to unscrew the rear plate to get to it - this means you have to unplug the connector at the rear to remove the plate to get a screwdriver in - thus the voltage adjustment must be the first adjustment - it's not an external or push button setting , At £200 they are cheap enough for the quality and ease of use and installation - it's also a voltmeter So voltmeter, timer, FCD, boost gauge,boost controller, all in one - boost controller is 6 settings and scramble boost with variable time and % over boost , and warnings of over boost with lights or flashing display Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jza800 Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 ok, so that will say, that you can set the fuel cut exactly at 4.30v as that is there the j-spec goes in fuelcut.. ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagman Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 It's not exact it's set to your car , there are instructions included Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jza800 Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 i now that j-spec supraes, goes in fuel-cut over 4.30v... so if it is that you mean with two decimal that it reads in eks. 4.33 , instad off 4.3.. is that correct?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagman Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Do you understand that each and every ECU fuel cut voltage can vary , do you understand that each and every map , sensor output versus boost can vary , do you understand that sensors can drift ? Are 4.27 and 4.38 and 4. 21 and 4.33 volts the same , if YOUR fuel cut was 4.19 , which voltage setting would you prefer? No one knows YOUR fuel cut voltage on YOUR car , no matter how much you search the internet . There are instructions included with the Gizmo , you follow these to set up the unit - it's that simple Fit , adjust , test , adjust , test , adjust , test - until your car is set - you have the ability to adjust to 2 decimal places (I can't explain that any better) some FCD are only to 1 decimal place 4.3 , 4.4 ,4.5 etc I have given you an overview of the unit based on the three I have used .

jza800 Posted October 9, 2014 Author Share Posted October 9, 2014 The only thing i not quite understand, is what you mean with the 2 decimal. Is it this eks: 4.2 Or this eks: 4.22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grasmt Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Others will increase by 0.1 increments The ms-2 can increase or decrease at 0.01 increments so you could adjust the ms-2 10 more times than another ebv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
