hahahaha ... i actually finally have a nice boot mould now, after all this time!

He set it up himself in about 2 hours. Nice digital display, 3 boost settings which u can set up to have 3 settings in different gears, wastegate control, so obviously boost comes on harder and faster than wat it used to with the t piece. It also holds boost a **** load better and doesn't spike like the t piece used to.

But, imo, for the price of an eboost, u may as well save for an aftermarket ecu. There was no way in hell i was buying Ben an aftermarket ecu for christmas thats for sure!!

Guys, if your after electronic boost controllers, DO NOT pay Autobahn style prices!!

Try these websites if you haven't all ready!!

www.nengun.com

www.greenline.jp, both awesome pricing on EVERYTHING!!!

Before i discovered these great sites, i payed $700 for a, BLITZ SPEC-R elec boost controller, NENGUN, delivered for $540.00.
I personally recommend this controller, holds boost awesome. Here in S.A,Kier Wilsons 8.8sec R32 GTR uses 1, speaks for itself.
Another mate of mine uses the Greddy, Profec B spec-II, $435.00 delivered.
Awesome controller, around $600.00 here.
You'll be amazed with these prices.
Secure buying, and great service too.

Have a browse, you might have to register with them 1st, takes a minute or 2.
PSI.

my bro has a good condition calais boot mould that just need a respray in 2 pak gloss black..

Damn... You can buy the side calais strips but not the centre

thanks for the reply.. mines in good nick, but slightly faded.. may have to just respray it

do you know where you can buy the clips to hold it down? the boot strip I mean. its so hard to try replace all the parts..
