I spotted that black one in town last night dumping its tits off again outside bar centro

They are pretty much essential if you want to run anything more than stock boost. Manual boost controllers are cheaper but you have less control. On an electronic you have two settings to play with. 'Duty' and 'Gain'. The duty is how much boost and the gain determines how strong that boost comes on. When setting one up its best to start low, ideally at wastegate pressure then slowly rise the duty up. Just be weary with the cold weather coming it so you don't over boost. These turbo cars love the chilly air

Could well be the same one I spotted in my local village the other week dumping its tits off

Right, I'll have a guess mines set to a safe 1.3 bar then

Right, that's strange then because I hit mine tonight booting it from 3rd. This was in the GT4 though not the starlet. It sure felt like fuel cut. Looked at the boost controller and it peaked at 1.33 @ 5125. Stock cut is at 1.2/1.3 on those so wondering if the units had a fuel cut feature or when piggybacked didn't always blank out the factory ECU setting.

Do these units have a fuel / boost cut setting like the stock ECU's?

I never have this problem on the Starlet because it never goes to a Garage and I do all the work myself. The Celica on the other hand, that only goes back to the garage after I've broken something on a track day

Spotted this one just coming out of the white hart the other night dumping its tits off behind me. I was in the Celica. Anyone's off here?

Thought it had something more powerful than stock in it Makes going to the shops more fun!

Did anyone see that Pug 205 smashing out low 11's? That thing was mental.

Mines been re-mapped on an emanage to 1.15 bar, decat back, filter and fitted with an AVCR. Still pretty stock all in all. It's just getting a good shoot off. The lowest one from our club did a sub 13.

The only run I got timed on was a 14.2 in the end and thats with a 5.5k launch

Mine was black one with black rims, carbon fibre rear spoiler blocks and jumping the lights at the start on my first run

Hi mate, No, I was in the GT4 today doing runs down the strip. Starlets not got MOT on it yet.

The forecast's dry socks Rain will be later in the evening so BBC Weather says. Still, nothing a brolly won't put right.

Its the last big Jap car meet of the year so who's going? I know a few off TGTT are going down and I'll be down there with the GT4OC guys and gals. No starlet stands there this year as I'm aware? Any convoys going from around the M1 28/29 area?

Not been on here for quite a while....from reading the above thats not a bad thing. Whats the crack with the new brand then?

ST's are not that quick compared to a standard starlet to be honest, in my experience they have the edge on ST's. Clio sports on the other hand, your going to need a few mods and a little more boost ;)

Its at Exhausts UK just past the Cinema. S9 2DN is the postcode.

Is anyone going to this off here? Me and a mate are popping up just to have a nosy tommorow for a bit.

Many thanks for the bulb, it came this morning. Great service and I can recommend Sheekey for your Toyota parts, not that I've had any bad dealings with my local one as they are good for parts two. Good old Toyota custmer service is alive and well! Cheers!

Excellent, pm'd.

I'm after a replacement bulb for the outer light on a quadlight. I've been informed you can get these from Toyota for around £20 as aftermarket ones dont fit correctly.

Is this meet at MFN on Sunday then? I'm off so may be able to attend, depending on the condition I'm in Sunday morning after a saturday out on the piss. They still thrash it around j27 on sundays then? Though the fuzz had put an end to that last year.
