Blitz DSBC Install / Setup

Installng the Blitz DSBC

Quite an easy task really - you will need the following tools:

  • Side cutters
  • Pliers
  • Ratchet ; 10mm socket
  1. Choose where you will fit the DSBC unit, and prepare surfaces accordingly, with access for the wire loom, make sure battery is disconnected at this time.
  2. Find a suitable place to attach the Solenoid like the power steering fluid reservoir.
  3. Measure up the distance between the "in" port (second port looking from the top) and the intercooler pipe, cut the supplied Hose to the correct length and attach. Do the same for the "out" port (bottom one) to the actuator for the turbo.
  4. Keep the standard boost solenoid wired up, just not connected with air pipes.
  5. Plug in the  Blitz Solenoid loom, and leave it for now - If you look at the bulkhead/ firewall you will see a thick loom running down toward a grommit which leads into the car. Pull the gromit out, and make a small incision, but it should be big enough for the DSBC's wire loom & plug to fit through. - I use a "cat and mouse" method for passing the plugs through - tie them to a piece of string or light bendy wire, and poke it through. It comes out just behind the heater box, and isnt that easy to get behind. Wait until you can see the wire and pull it through, gently. the plugs will come through then just carry on pulling gently until there is enough with some play on the solenoid end.
  6. Wire it up with "+" and "-" from, wherever you feel is appropriate. (ignition "+" or the acc wire should do fine).
  7. Re connect the battery, and start the engine - you should have power to the Blitz DSBC, and it should be displaying the current pressure in cmHG (around 45 i think).

Setting up the DSBC

Well, the first and most important thing to do, is set the Overboost Warning Pressure.

  1. Turn the "Mode" knob to the left 1 click, and it should display a red screen with "WARN" in the bottom left. to the right there will be a figure (0.00).  Assuming you have a standard turbo fitted, the limit needs to be set for 0.8 HkPa (bar). This is done by pressing the Mode knob, and adjusting pressure setting with the Volume button.
  2. Press the Mode button again to return to setup. Turn it right 1 click again, and a number "1" should appear in the top left. Press the Mode button to enter the set up mode, the number "1" will flash.
    By turning the Volume knob, you can increase or decrease the amount of pressure. I have mine set for 20, and this runs a little bit higher than standard.
  3. Press Mode again to confirm the settings.

Note on the DSBC Settings

The figures 0-100 represent turbo performance percentage increase. If its set at 40, then the turbo will be working 40% of what it does from standard.
The turbo will not last long at all if its standard, the engine might not cope with the pressure if run at higher boost settings above 0.85 bar.

If you are running a standard turbo then stay away from "40" - 35 seems a safe bet so far

There are a further 3 settings available still, on my "No.3" I have it set to 40, which has so far enabled me to reach 0.92 HkPa (Bar). I havent got round to setting the 4th one up yet, but needless to say it will be upped a little more once a steel internal turbo is fitted.

Setting up takes time and practice, thought once you get the hang of it its not that difficult.

I will update soon when I start playing and understanding the "Scramble" setting more thoroughly.
