I have had experience with these before and there really nice.. u can set 2 different boost levels and at the flip of a switch u can go hi or low boost depending on what u have em set at..

its a turbo XS manual dual stage controller.. bought it from boost parts on ebay.. they are awesome and fast shipping..

nice, thats sweet. loose one race, change the setting and shock them!
how much did that cost you?

I'm getting that one too (the HP one, don't know if you got that one); I'll probably be wiring it so the high boost setting is on whenever it reaches a pre-set RPM (throug the SMT6), or maybe with a switch on the 2nd or 3rd gear. It's pretty useless to boost in 1st gear; all you do is burn tires. Having it by RPM is nice too; if you just want to cruise, you just drive normally, and set your wastegate at a VERY low boost (like 2-4 if possible). Whenever you want the power, you just floor it.

dont have it by rpm then. have it turn on by WOT, or something close.

Why did you opt for a manual controller over an electronic? Just personal preference?

I would wire it with a magnetic switch so you have low boost in first.. like was said, lots of boost in that gear just equals more wheelspin. If it was me, I might even wire it for low boost in first and second..

I have really like my Apexi AVC-R boost contoller, you can have gear specific boost control and you can switch boost settings with a few button pushes.

about a month ago i was searching for wastegate controlers to hook up to full standalone systems and i saw a stepper motor controlled wastegate. You can set any boost level through the laptop from like 5-30psi....i dont really know too much about the stepper motor controlled wastegates...anyone ever seen one, know of any good ones, have a link to one?
