Greedy Boost Controller Profec B 2

[86Nick]

I have just installed a Greddy boost controller. I don't understand how to set up the boost on it. Can someone please explain it to me? I know how to get in to the mode for setup, just don't understand what % to use for the boost I want.

Greddy Profec controller

I think I remember reading another post or two about this same controller- try searching for "profec" or "greddy spec" and see what comes up. I seem to remember a link to an external website that had good info. Hope this helps- Steve

Found it!

The post is in the General Buick Forum- from Feb 7th '09. Sorry, I don't know how to create a direct link. It has the link to Greddy and also to an import site with good info. Also, another forum member (Dave H?) is on there and says he has installed and run several of these units, so you might look him up as well...-Steve

the manual is an easy find on the net. i used one of these on a turbo dodge and it worked great.
the following is in PDF, so your computer will need Acrobat to read pdf files.

Can the Hi/Lo mode be controlled remotely?

Let's say a voltage of 4Vdc input would put it in Hi mode?

I would love to be able to do exactly that to keep lower boost levels except in WOT.

You can definitely run an external switch. I don't remember exactly how you wire it. I do know you need a 3.5mm headphone jack.
I used to run one hooked to a microswitch on my shifter. When it was in low gear (stageright transbrake engaged) it would be on low setting. As soon as I launched it would switch to the high setting. Worked pretty good.

My whole problem is figure what KPA will equal LBS of boost I want.

My whole problem is figure what KPA will equal LBS of boost I want.

Here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal_(unit)


Remember that KPA is the same as PSIA,not PSIG.

Atmospheric pressure will show as 0 boost on a boost gauge [PSIG - atmosphere referenced as 0].
Atmospheric pressure will show as ~ 15 lbs on a PSIA referenced gauge [remember the air around you has pressure too ~ 14.7 lbs.].

Therefore 15 lbs. boost is 15 lbs. on a boost [PSIG] gauge or 30 lbs. absolute [PSIA].

Hope that helps a bit.

Nick, You can switch the display to PSI. The directions are on pg. 14 of the manual posted in post # 6.
