This
is
a
highly
efficient boost

excelling
in
rapid boost response and stability.
This
'unit
can
be installed
on
virtually
any
turbo vehicle ranging
from
nomlal
engines
to hard tuned
engines
with
its self-learning
function. Furthermore, the standard
real

• Although this
unit
may
be installed on virtually
any
turbo vehicle ranging
from
normal.
modified
engines.
to
turbo upgrades, the
unit
utilizes the injector
signal
for
its selflearning function
which
limits
its usage
to
Electronically Controlled
Fuel
Injection System
Vehicles
Running
On
Gasoline.
Please be aware
that
the Self- Learning
mode
cannot have
an
accurate reading irthe injector pulse
display does not
work
and ifthe installation vehicle
has
an
electrical current controller for the
injector
signal.
(For instance: I'Z 31,
It
31
)
"
This
unit
may
be
programmed
up
to a
maximum
boost pressure of2.0 ( kglcm2.) Raising the
boost pressure above
normal
settings
which
exceeds the
vehicle's
fuel
supply
margin
lIIay
lead
to
engine
failure.
When
raising boost pressure, please raise the boost according to the margins
of
the
injector, air
flow
meter, and
fuel
pump
of
the engine
and
turbo.
• Please bewarned that
our
t'ompally
is

respollsible for ANY damages incurred
to
the
engine, turbo alld all I'elated
cOlllllOllents
due

"
Some
vehicles
may
have
a

system
when
the boost pressure
has
been raised. Please
release

in
these
cases.
Please contact our

2. Boost Pressure Regulating Solenoid
This component receives
its
signal
from
the control
unit
and
operates the valve either ON/
OFF
for
a specified amount
of
time.
By
managing
and
changing
this
ON/OFF cycle (duty)
in
real
time
and
monitoring the feedback information, the unit
is
able
to
commence proper boost control.
The boost
levels
will
proportionally become higher as the
ON
duration continues.
3. Pressul'e Sensor
The

the
intnke

nlld
uses
this
feedback
to manage the
boost pressure
and
real
time
boost
display.
Because
this
sensor
is
an
absolute pressure sensor, the sensor corrects
its
boost pressure
according to the existing outside atmosphere pressure.
The
needle
orsome boost meters
may
not
read the specified boost
levels
at
all
times
because the meters
read
off
of
relative boost pressure
while
this pressure sensor works off
of
absolute pressure.
The needle
of
some
boost
meters
may
read
higher than
usual
in
areas
of
low
atmospheric
pressure and
read
lower
in

3. P."eset Boost Dnty Setting
Although this unil uses feedback management and the selflearning function to
automatically control the boost pressure to the specified setting. the valve driving power duty
must stay within a certain limit. Since this limit varies
from
vehicle to vehicle depending on engine
tuning,
it
is
llecessary to set each and every individual vehicle.

3.
Once the LED'S are turned on:
Ihis
shows that the boost control management
is
OFF making
the boost pressure only rise to the factory setting controlled
by
the factory actuator operation.
4.
Drive the vehicle with the power OFF. At this point, attempt to drive in the gear with the
highest load and check the peak boost level.
5.
Normal actuators may range' from 0.4-0.8 kg/cm2. The higher the boost level, the lower the
duly cycle that
is
needed to reach the same boost level.
As
for the actual duty setting, the
fundamental rule
is
if
the boost setting
is
set for 1.00 kg/cm2 and the actuator pressure
is
0.4
kg/cm2 the limit
is
70% while a 0.8kg/cm2 actuator pressure would denote a
400/0
limit.
Of
course
if
the boost pressure is higher than this the duty limits would be lower and
if
the boost
pressure lower, the duty limit higher.
6. Using the actual driving data as a base, set the duty setting corresponding to the actual boost
pressure.
7.
Press the SELECT switch once again for longer than 3 seconds and turn the power back
ON.

of

thnn the one above. Please change the duty level for the new boost pressure as well.
!CAUTION ( Same
for
actuator and wastegate type)
Although this unit has a RPM separate selflearning function, vehicles maximizing their injectors
by
6200 rpm
will
not be able to lise the selflearning lunction during that period because the unil
uses the injector signal to read the engine
RPM
for the selflearning function. In order to have
more precise boosl control, the solution to this problem is to upgrade to higher capacity·
ir~ectors.

As long as the basic requirements are fulfilled, the selflearning function will automatically
proceed under normal driving conditions. Please follow the steps below to speed up the self
learning function process.
I.
Drive the vehicle in as high
of
a gear as possible in order
to
get the boost pressure
to
match the
specified boost level
at
the lowest possible RPM. ( the intercept RPM) ( Running the vehicle from
the intercept RPM + 1000 RPM is acceptable.)
2.
Ne)!.t,
run the vehicle
in
the
mid

of
a mid-range
gear
to
match
the
specified
boost
level.
3. Repeating steps I and 2 will speed up the selflearning function.
4.
If
the boost pressure does
IIOt
rise properly, please reset the selflearning function
or
check the
set boost pressure again.
..
Be sure to reset the duty level and repeat the programming sequence from the beginning when
modifying either the actuator or wastegate.

I. While the ignition key is ON, whether the unit is turned OFF
or

will
function for both the digital display and bar graph.
2.
Since the boost pressure display and injector pulse display is accompanied by the digital and bar
graphs, toggling between the
two
displays
is
possible. The display limits for boost pressure is -760
mmHg-2.00 kg/cm2, and 0 - 100% for injector pulse. The bar gral)h reads
0.60-1.50

3.
Use the MODE switch
to
toggle between the various displays. For instance,
if
the present

in
digital form, the bar graph
will
denote the injector pulse. Pressing
