Electronic boost controllers....
- Thread starter idlewild9

Most of the boost controllers I've seen have the instructions online, it's only a matter of searching them thru Google and downloading the PDF file. Which model controller are you talking about?
I'm running the HKS EVCS. I've tuned alot of cars with manual controllers (not like its hard 
) But my car seems to be running alot differently with the electronic controller. The motor seems to be very loud, and I don't get that "Supra Sound" of the GTE like normal. My analog boost gauge is also reading zero psi, but the controller is reading 8.5?! Any ideas?..

Perhaps It's leaking..

The Supra is pretty quiet, it whirs kind of loud. I am wondering if you have vacuum lines hooked up right. I don't have the HK$. I bought the Profec B SpecII.
The HKs EVC boost controller are among the best of the best. I have personally owned a HKs Evc 4 and EVC EZ currently. Pretty easy to install and you dont have to mess around percentages and duty cycles like the other boost controllers. JUst set it and forget it lol. For your problem, check when you turn the key on to make sure the boost controller silenoid is on , believe me you'll hear it . Second make sure you have the lines plumed correctly , one to the wastegate, one to the nipple on the turbo and the other to a vaccum source on the manifold. Well let us know how it goes.....

what vacuum source on the manifold do you tap into?

How do you have your profec B SpecII hooked up ??? are you using the balance feature in the back??
Eh? Balance feature?Northbaysupra;1817827 said:
I have a profecB 2 and I dont know what you're asking about. You mean the air filter?

I added a "T" vacuum fitting to the NIPPLE on the back of the manifold by the egr. I has been working fine and accurate as hell. I see alot of people adjusting percentages, Nah too much shit on those boost controllers. I LOVED my HKS EVC 4 till the head unit got stolen :-( , now the HKS EVC EZ is good too.

I don't know what you are talking about either. The valve and solenoid is in series between the turbo outlet and the wastegate actuator. Then it is wired to the control unit.
Behind the actual unit inside there is a vacuum hook up .. are you using that??

Yes, it is hooked to the manifold, not the solenoid which is on the turbo outlet before the intercooler.
