V2 3009 VNT Boost Controller

Warning

GFB recommends that only a qualified automotive technician fit this product.

This product is intended for racing use only, and it is the owner's responsibility to be aware of the legalities of fitting this product in his or her state/territory regarding noise, emissions and vehicle modifications.

It is advisable to ensure fueling is sufficient for the intended boost pressure, and also to check the exhaust gas temperature after making boost pressure changes to ensure the engine’s safety.

GFB products are engineered for best performance, however incorrect use or modification of factory systems may cause damage to or reduce the longevity of the engine/drive-train components.

V2 VNT Boost Controller (Part# 3009) Specific Warning

It is important that you have a boost gauge installed on the car (or at least available for monitoring boost during setup) before fitting a V2, that you know the existing peak boost pressure, and have established your target boost based on the mechanical limitations of the engine. GFB does not advise “safe” boost levels for your car, as the V2 (like all boost controllers) is considered a tuning tool and increasing boost pressure is done so at the user’s risk.

Want to increase or decrease the boost on your variable vane (i.e. VNT/ VGT) turbo diesel? Is the factory boost curve erratic and all over the place? Blown an engine with the factory boost control system? Then the V2 is for you!

It’s common knowledge that some engines with vacuum operated ECU controlled VNT/VGT turbos suffer erratic boost behavior, to the point where turbo or engine failures can occur, even on completely stock vehicles. The V2 takes over from the factory ECU control and ensures a stable and repeatable boost curve, which your engine will thank you for!

Cleverly packaged within a black anodized CNC-machined 6061 aluminium housing are two individual adjustment dials, each having a separate and unique adjustment function.

This first dial sets the boost pressure, whilst the other is used to adjust the boost rise rate, i.e. how fast the turbo spools, meaning you can tune your boost to suit any driving conditions.

Use Cases

Able to be installed on most turbocharged vehicles that utilise a VNT turbo*.
