electronic or under bonnet?

[GTiRich]

I'm looking to up the boost on my car and really want an electronic controller, but they seem damn expensive. Is a manual under bonnet system any worse? What would you guys say?

well wen u can get a greddy controller for 250 quid and u will never have to change it it comes with everything u need to run endless power and looks cool to lol i really would never have anything else bleed valves ect suck and in my opionion ent worth $hit if u want a little more power just add jets for about 40p lol message me for more info if u like

Ive been running a bleed valve for over a year and have never had any problems with it, had it set up on the RR to 280bhp with filter and exhaust

yeh but u cant beat electronic control the greddy works 0 to 100 once u work out wat number represents wat boost u got it made and its acurate u can set a warning for over boosting where it flashes red also add the button u got low to hi boost at the flick of a button i've been running electronic boost controllers for 4 years i dnt seem the point in bleed valves they are completly useless all u have to do is jet the pipework to get more boost so y waste 30 quid on a bit of old brass

bleed valves they are completly useless

Id totally disagree, ive used one for ages and does exactly what it is supposed to therefore not useless.

You show me a better way to get APPROX 1bhp per £ :?: :?:

Bleed valves are a crude way of increasing boost but its like most things, if u dont overdo it you wont have any problems, and I'd rather save my cash than buy something that I personally dont really need.

If you dont fancy a bleed valve and dont wont to spend out on an electronic controller contact ex-gtir and speak to him about his in car switchable boost solinoid thingy-me-bob he does, you get a little switch to flick between standard and 0.9 bar i think.

I havn't got one cos i like pretty dials so i brought an avcr which i have no complaints about.

i bleed valve works by reducing air to the actuater by leeking it out all u do is pull the pipe off put a 50p jet in there to restrict the air to the actuater and u have more boost simple takes seconds and costs under a pound??????????and u will get the same boost all day long...........

Youll laugh at this then....when i first got my R i was reluctant to do any work on it myself in case i blew it up so in my naiveness i paid a certain maldon based company to upgrade my boost by fitting, unbeknown to me, a bleed valve and charging me £200 :shock: :roll:
