Great write up man. I see that you have also been to Dairy Queen by that napkin in your glove box, LOL .

How does this EBC set if you don't have the display. Is it as easy as turn knob A set, then turn knob B and set? I am interested in buying this EBC, but didn't really want to mess with a display.

 

Has anyone got some better pictures on where to connect the hoses? Hard to tell exactly what sources are used with these pictures.

 

Ok, I'm about to start an official thread/how to request on setting up the HKS EVC V. bishiboy or someone else with experience with this ebc could you do a write up?

 

you should do one on the Blitz id-III also

 

did u ever find out the problem with the % thing
i think i am having the same problem

 

I have a slight problem, after I connected the 6mm hose from the wastegate and turbo outlet to the stepper motor and the 4mm from the vacum source, my BOV to the stepper motor. I don't seem to be getting any boost except what the preset boost level of the wastegate actuator.

I can't seem to figure out the problem, I made sure that there were no leaks in the system and all the vac lines are securely fastened on each end. I maed sure the waste gate was hooked up to the the "O" port and the turbo outlet was hooked up to the "I" port. No matter how high or low I turn the gain to it still won't go higher than 80 or lower than 75 kpa. around 11 to 12 psi. I have the HKS EVC V limted edition. A friend of mine told me to switch the vac lines around between the wastegate and turbo outlet. However, I'm hesitant because of what HKS stated. That this will cause overboost.

Any help is much appreciated!!!

Thanks

Bump for some advise.

 

I understand that I need to cap off the stock bcs. but do you guys cap off the little bung on the intake pipe? I would also like to know a good place to tap in for my vac hose. (pics)

Im also reading the instructions for the greddy ebc and they hook it up to the fuels pressure regulator, and the hks instructions say not too. any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks guys
Buddy

 

bump I know this thread is old. But some one has to know
thanks

 

what happened to all the pics?

 

the pics are in the sticky if you search there are 2 of these. the sticky contains that pics and this is just to talk about it

 

6. Run vacuum line from Intake Manifold pressure source to the "B" on the stepping motor.

What is this Manifold pressure source you speak of???
Can I just "T" into the vac line that I use for my BOV???
Or is this something totally different from that vac line?

 

You could use that line as it is essentially the same but I would think that you would want the reference source as close to the originating source as possible. Then again running a longer line from the evc to the intake mani where that bov line starts might negate any of the benefits of that entirely

 

I see what you mean. Maybe I'll try the line that I tapped my boost gauge into...Wait, will I still need a boost gauge after I install the EVC?

I used the line that is clapped to the valve cover for my gauge, does the line for the EVC replace the line for the boost gauge?
