Guest Rosaaen89 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Hey guys I was wondering if you guys would recommend getting a boost cut controller or a fuel cut defencer for a jdm 2jz and if you prefer one over the other? Also if I only wanted to run 12-14pounds of boost do I need one or would I just need to install stock USDM spec turbo setup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Whiffin Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 If you are going to run over 1 bar boost you need one yes, HKS fcd's work fine, we've been fitting them for 15 years now! Greddy isn't available new anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rosaaen89 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 We'll I wouldn't mind running only 1bar maybe a little less. But right now I have a restrictor ring installed right after the down pipe and seems like it's only pushing like 4pounds of boost. Did I install restrictor ring in wrong spot?

Thats the correct place yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rosaaen89 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 So do I maybe have the restrictor ring maybe too small? Also if I were to install usdm turbos and take restrictor ring out should it boost up normally close to 1 bar without a fcd installed?

You dont need a restrictor with US turbos thats right, sounds like you have an issue somewhere causing the low boost though. What size is the restrictor, 2"?

Guest Rosaaen89 Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Yeah I believe the restrictor ring was 2" but it was a little off center. So might even be a bit less. If I wanted to only run 10-14 pounds of boost I wouldn't need a boost cut controller or fuel cut defender either if I installed usdm turbos than would I? Just if I wanted to push more than 14 pounds?
