Gizzmo IBC

Hey guys,
I've got a Gizzmo IBC, while I'm happy with the simplicity and consistency between gears, I'm not terribly happy with the way it holds boost. I get quite a large spike and it struggles to hold boost to redline. i.e. my current setting is 0.86bar, but it's only got 0.65 bar by redline if it's lucky.
Before I bought the thing, I purposely asked Gizzmo themselves if the boost controller will try to maintain boost within the limits of the solenoid's duty cycle and they said it would.
Does anyone have any tips or anything, perhaps I'm doing it incorrectly.
Cheers,
Nathan

Oh, and I've currently got the gain setting to 0 bar.

I do remember reading in the manual I downloaded that it will only hold boost depending on the cababilities of the turbo (or somethign to that effect). Could it just be the turbos running out of huff just before redline?

It could be, but the Jaycar IEBC with the same solenoid can hold boost right to redline, and in theory my turbos should be able to flow more air than factory CT12's.

Ok.
You're not using the iBC solenoid with the iBC??!

No I am using the Gizzmo one, but it's the exact same solenoid as the Autronic one I was using before.

Hi guys, hoping you two might be able to help me since you both have gizzmos?
How do you set boost on the bloody thing? The manual says from the duty cycle menu it should go into the boost set menu after not pushing a button for 5 seconds. Mine doesnt and if I push a button it just goes to the next memory (ie. 1 through 4). Any ideas?
Thanks,
Matt

I have a gizzmo i didnt have an issue.
i used all of the defult settings but the boost one i just choose the first setting of one then increased the boost to 42 which gave me a boost reading of 23psi or there abouts.
this worked fine for me and help boost through the complete rev range. its actully the most stablest EBC i have used
