    The previous owner had an adjustable bleed valve to adjust the boost, like one of these; http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Turbotech...item335e98a59b

    Hey Tony,

    I fitted one of those to my GQ and to my disappointment it failed the test on the Dyno, could not get the Boost level set right with it, i think the cheap spring failed to have adequate spring rate in it. I ended up splashing out for a decent one during the dyno run tho sort it out. All good now but i went a good brand Turbo Smart Boost Controller.

    my 2c
    Its a Nissan! =====> Its a Keeper!! ....... Got a TD42 in it BONUS!! ....... I'm a lucky bugger! I've got 2 of em!

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.
