View Full Version : utec boost control goofywrx 02-28-2006, 01:10 AM Just ordered a utec from spun motorsports and I was wondering if I can use my manual boost controller with utec or if I have to hook up my stock boost controller. If so would it be better to buy the perrin ebcs. I know i should probably search this but dont have much time on the computer and it will be here by the end of the week thanks Kenny dj_noose 02-28-2006, 08:20 AM The UTEC can control your boost with the stock boost solenoid and comes with an ABC(aux. boost con.) as a bleeder in open loop (it's been a while). In closed loop it's not nessesary to use the ABC and the stock solenoid will work fine but might have a little spiking. I have the Perrin EBC and it does a great job regulating the boost with the UTEC. I wouldn't use the MBC fwiw. goofywrx 02-28-2006, 01:10 PM ok then I will hook the stock boost solenoid up.. thanks kenny MonoxideChild 02-28-2006, 02:07 PM does anyone know how to get ahold of the ABC which comes with new utech..i bought a used one, and no abc or anything included,just utech...what else will i need Gethin 02-28-2006, 02:53 PM TurboXS is best place to get the other UTEC parts. Or ebay if someone has a spare ABC. Freon 02-28-2006, 04:38 PM You may not need the ABC. I'd try to make the car run the boost you want without the ABC first. MonoxideChild 02-28-2006, 05:07 PM 35$ hardware kit 89$ A.B.C turboXs has the best cust. support found out everything i need and then some.. too bad i couldnt talk longer, im at work. guess i should sell some car parts maybe.....? :lol: MonoxideChild 02-28-2006, 05:10 PM A.B.C. is a must for the utech to cover your boost duty....unless you run a mechanical,or other boost controller.... zaxrex 03-01-2006, 04:06 AM $35 to me and I ship that ABC to you with the allen key. PM me Ctracer911 03-02-2006, 04:50 AM whats the a.b.c used for? i dont understand it in full, is it like a m.b.c when its in open loop?? I was going to replace my stock solenoid with the perrin one once my utec comes in should i do it?? and if i do do i need to use the a.b.c with it?? Gethin 03-02-2006, 03:30 PM abc is a bleeder valve. Helps the bcs if the values in your map dont get you to where you want to be i.e. hitting the correct boost targets as per the TurboXS manual. Some cars need it, come don't. Best to install it closed, run the basemap, check your logs and take it from there, increasing values in boost map to reach targets, if you have to put in values over 400 for example, try opening abc a few turns then log again to check boost levels. |
