Blitz SBC i-D User manual

Instruction Manual
*This system is designed to change the boost pressure of
turbocharged vehicles and does not give or reduce fuel to the Enter button
vehicle. Some cars may need a fuel cut device.
*Read this manual carefully before installing and using this system.
About the system
*This system contains a display, controller, and a solenoid unit. Menu button
*The controller is a compact 1/2 din size.
*LCD display can be seen easily during day or night. Display unit Rec / Stop
*There are 4 individual boost pressure settings.
*This system has a boost gauge, peak hold function, scramble
boost function, and a warning device.
*The two solenoid set gives this unit a better response, and is
capable of holding high boost pressure.
*This unit sets off a warning beep when boost pressure is close to
desired boost setting.
*Switching from wastegate to actuator can be done in controller.
WARNING
*This device is to change boost pressure but does not give or
reduce fuel to the vehicle.
*Boost controller does not go below the stock boost pressure.
*Check the parts list to make sure you are not missing any parts
to this device.
*Too much boost or not enough fuel pressure can cause damage
to engine and vehicle. Be careful and make sure that the vehicle
sufficient fuel pressure for desired boost setting. We are not
responsible for damage to the device, vehicle, or engine cause
by improper tuning.
*IMPORTANT! The product from Blitz Performance Products has solenoid unit
been designed and intended for off road applications. Some
products are legal for sale and use only on racing vehicles, which
may never be driven on the public highway.
*Do not try to install this device on a hot engine. Please take this
unit to a qualified installer.

SBC-ID Installation
Use caution on Installation
*Be aware to make sure that the installation on valve unit is correct
on in and out ports.
*Check for pressure leaks in hoses.
*Cut hoses straight down and not in an angle.
*Check and make sure that hoses are clamped tight for no leakage.
*Keep the rubber hoses away from heat sources such as the
exhaust manifold and etc.
*Keep the valve unit and hoses away from moving parts.
*Some vehicles may need a boost and fuel cut device.
Installation of valve unit
*Keep the valve unit away from
hot components but keep within
three feet from the turbo.
*
CAUTION
: more than three feet
away from the turbo can cause
bad response with boost surge
or boost spike.
*Use hose enlargement adapter to
connect hose to valve unit and use
hose clamp to prevent leakage.
*Connect main wiring harness to
valve unit.
*Connect main wiring harness to controller.
*Connect display to controller.
WARNING:
keep hands away from hot engine components. Install
when entire engine bay has cooled. Turbo may still be hot even after
engine has cooled.

INSTALLATION OF VALVE UNIT Cars equipped with stock solenoid valve
Actuator type
Locate the T between the turbo, actuator, and stock solenoid. Remove
and cape off the stock solenoid valve and connect the turbo and actuator
*Cut or remove stock hose between turbo compressor and actuator. to the Blitz supplied valve unit.
Use connector to connect hose from valve unit to turbo compressor.
Use hose clamp to hold hose and connector together.
*Use hose connector to connect hose from valve unit to actuator. Diagram 3
Use hose clamps to hold hose and connector together.
Diagram 1
DUAL PORT ACTUATOR TURBO
Cut hose between stock solenoid and dual port actuator. Cap both
ends of the hoses. Cut hose between actuator and turbo and follow
instructions on Diagram 1.
Diagram 4
Diagram 2
CAUTION
Do not T - off any of these pressure hoses.

External wastegate type Installation of the controller
*The in port of the Solenoid unit is taped from pressure before
throttle body. Use supplied hose clamps to prevent pressure leak.
*Valve unit Out port connects to top port of external wastegate ( A ).
*Connect compressor port to bottom port of external wastegate ( B ).
*Red ( + ) positive wire from harness connects to 12 v ignition on.
*Black ( - ) negative wire from harness goes to ground
* Connect main harness to controller coupler.
*Connect the other end of the harness to valve unit.
*Use Teflon hose and connect to pressure port in controller to
after the throttle body, on the intake manifold. Use the crescent
clamp to hold the Teflon hose to the pressure port of the controller
and the Blitz T.
*The 3-wire coupler is not to be used in basic installation. It is for
Map Analyzer unit.
IMPORTANT:
Compressor pressure must be between turbo and *The optional sensor harness allows the user to tap into the vehilces

CAUTION:
make sure the Teflon hose is not crimped or squeezed.
