shaz2010 Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 I'm going to install this on the weekend and wanted a bit help if possible to people that have got one of these. Got the manual from their website but stuck as to which type to use for plunking it in? http://www.greddy.com/upload/file/Profec_manual.pdf I got this drawing in simple terms from a post a few years back from the search. Is this how it's done ? Any help of pictures ect would be great full, also is there anything that needs blocked off/up? Thanks shaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashloys Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Sorry for Hijacking the thread but I also have a Greddy Profec B Spec II installed, the boost is set ok etc but for some reason it's not showing what it's actually boosting at anymore?? It used to show it like a boost gauge in kPa (which I believe you can just multiply by 1000x and it's basically in bar/psi?). If anyone can help me get it back up let me know lol. Becuase my boost gauge has just shat itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dim Sum Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 If the boost gauge aint working then I would just chase the vacuum line to the inlet manifold check for damage lines or a loose hose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashloys Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 It's not that it's not working. It's just not showing up on the digital screen anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vertex Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 It's not that it's not working. It's just not showing up on the digital screen anymore. What is it showing instead? A blank blue screen? Good luck shaz with the install. Please post up on how it goes. I'll be trying this in a few weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashloys Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 It's not blank it just stays like that and doesn't show what it's actually boosting at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaz2010 Posted November 15, 2015 Author Share Posted November 15, 2015 Update I installed my BC and was wondering if it's best to set it up on a RR ? I've had a little play with it but it's been raining so not been able to do many pulls. Any one know what the settings do, Low settings and high settings Set- Gain- Start boost- Peak- Warning- Limit- ? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaz2010 Posted November 19, 2015 Author Share Posted November 19, 2015 (edited) Update ; I've Sussed how to set this up now I've had a play around with it tonight and OMG I've got high settings at 18.3kpa which is about 1.26 bar and I adjusted the gain to keep it at that for a longer period through the Rev range. I can say I can't believe the difference it's a beast ! I can't wait to try 1.4 bar it still needs a little playing around with it to get it spot on. I thought 1 bar was a big step as this is what is was running with out the BC but this has changed the aggressive side to her! Amazing feels like a proper fast car now. Need to get it on the dyno to see what it's putting out. Before I could keep my self forward in my seat now it actually puts me back!

shaz2010 Posted November 19, 2015 Author Share Posted November 19, 2015 This is what my high settings is going to be just for Little bursts. And I'm going to set my low settings as 1.2bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra_ufo Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Shaz, I am getting to 1.34 BAR, you do know that you can change it to show in BAR, its a setting thats KPA x100 or something like that mate. 1.34 BAR is like WOW! Mac, dont use anyone settings mate, I used Bergs settings and he was getting 1.2 BAR consistently yet I was getting 1.34BAR with the same settings. SO be careful if you do use someones settings.

Just adjust the set "down" a few percent at a time until you reach what you want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattP Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 You set it up by feel there really isn't any settings that are universal. I set my alarm at 1.30 on cold nights it regularly sets this off on switchover Other than that start with your SET and adjust it up until the boost you desire is reached. You may find the boost drops off at certain revs this is where the gain setting comes in increase that until you get stable desired boost. You may also fine that on switchover you register a spike in boost it will register in the BC peak boost so you can flick through and see it I know of a few members in the north east that regularly hit 1.4-1.5bar on J-Spec switchover. The consensus I came too was not very many people read and understand the Greddy controllers setup they just hit 1.2 bar and forget but the gain feature is night and day if set up correctly.

I was running an original profec b which Jurgen set up for me when I picked up the car. This is a whole new world of settings for me to get wrong lol.

This is a whole new world of settings for me to get wrong lol. As was I Jurgen imported the car and fitted a new Whifbitz Full BPU kit including the Greddy B Profec spec 2. They are really simple to set up its just time consuming to do right then all it takes is a different temprature to throw of your settings.
