i put the greedy profec EBC on my 240sx with a sr20det blacktop. I am having a problem with the warning option that it has. i have it set at ( set=40, set boost or start boost = 90, gain = 10%, warning = 110, and limit =4%. I have a 95 blacktop with intake 3" pipe all the way back, blitz dd BOV, 2and 1/4 " hotpipe, walbro fuel pump, and the boost controler. My problem is that whenever the boost reaches around 7-8 psi the warning starts going off. It makes the audible beep sound and starts flashing red. I am trying to run about 10 psi. Just want to know if anyone else has had this problem or if anyone might know what my problem might be. Thx

Do you have the unit displaying in PSI or KPa?

It is a known problem (just not admitted by greddy) that the controller basically doesn't work at all when it's in PSI mode. The warning will just go off randomly and sometimes it won't hold boost.

Switch it to KPa mode and it'll be perfect

Yeah, if KPA works, I guess it's not a problem I can't live with.
