What about this guys??? Should Limiter be [SET-4%] or [4%]? Which one is it really?

it's just 4%, but either would work since limiter-4% would just lower the boost more significantly once you hit the warning.

You mean "...either would work since set-4% would..."?

Thanks!

Hey guys I read the write up last night when installing my profec B but didnt read the whole thread. I found the unit to be working good but when I first would go WOT the boost would jump to 15 psi and sit there till I got way high in the RPM range (5500+) and then would go on to 19 psi ...

Well I knew it wasnt 100% as stock the car would jump up to 19psi and then just taper off under WOT ... so today I read the rest of the thread. Like many of you I had the little plastic cap on the other unused port. I pulled it off and things seem to be working like a charm now! I had to readjust my settings as it was now hitting way over 22psi ...

Currently my settings are:

Set 62%
Gain 7%
Set Gain 10%
Warning 21psi
Limiter 4%

Can everyone else post their settings so we can compare ...? Also is it bad to have the Set Gain at 10% ? It seems that everyone says to have it close the the desired max boost ... should I re adjust this?

I lightly tuned an 06 Evo 9 RS today that is running the B-Spec 2 that I installed for him. I kept it really conservative untill we can get his car tuned. The only mods so far is an Injen intake system and of course the boost controller.
Gain: 5%
Set Gain: 1.00 kPa
Set: 50%
Warning: 1.5 kPa
Limiter: 4%

These settings netted a peak of 20psi down low and holding 18psi up top.

I used the BOV line as I heard it is more consistant than the turbo nipple method. I capped off the turbo nipple, put a T in the BOV line.
