8775, mounting for profec b Posted by toykilla, Nov-05-01 06:10 AM
where have you guys with this profec b boost controller put the motor for it?? I am having a hard time finding enough room for the motor to fit. I have a 98 GS but with all the extra turbo and intercooler piping there is hardly any room in my engine bay

I couldnt fit mine behind the intake manifold. How did you?? Do you have a picture?? I put mine near where I put the horn on the chassis...

Speaking of horns, does anyone know where I can get a stock horn for our cars? Mine was removed when the IC went in, but never went back in and got lost somewhere along the way...
BTW, I have my Profec-B box mounted under the air filter. Its screwed into the sheet metal under the ecu/fuse assembly... If this is foggy, I'll try and get some pics if I can find a WinXP driver for my card reader.

Any good online salvage yards people suggest? I dont feel like driving an hr away to find a horn, might as well get it online, eliminate the hastle, an spend the same on shipping as i would driving there... -- Brad Rickard 98 GS HRC Stage V (nuff said)

LAST EDITED ON 06-Nov-01 AT 06:16 AM (PST)For the HRC setup, there is plenty of room where the stock intake use to be. I used the factory bolt holes to mount it. Fits perfect.

All I know is that it needs to be kept as cool as possible and the turbo get pretty damn HOT!! Also...in the instructions it says to mount a certain way. With the vaccumm lines upward. Does it have to be like that??

thx man, have you heard of the silinoid going bad??

8788, RE: mounting for profec b Posted by Super20G, Nov-07-01 03:02 PM
I have heard of a few people say theirs was shot and you cant get a replacement, you have to get a whole new profec b. But I think those probs were caused by dropping it or cracking the casing somehow... I dunno, but if its new and you have it installed correctly and it doesnt work, just uninstall it and have the place you got it from swap em for you. -- Brad Rickard 98 GS HRC Stage V (nuff said)

the thing is brand new and I installed it myself. Its 2 days old. It worked the day I put it in but today it stopped working. I didnt even move the thing. I ended up putting mine just below where yours is...drilled a hole and used a factory one to the chassis.

That is exactly where mine is mounted as well. It just seems like it is supposed to be there :)
