matt_lamb_160 252 Posted July 30, 2013 Can anyone recommend a good but basic digital boost controller that uses an external GM map sensor? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PSI_LTD 37 Posted July 30, 2013 make your own. use one of those digital pressure sensors, run 12 V to it, and hook the output to a 1/4" valve.. 1 Ants reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wes 214 Posted July 30, 2013 Digital sucks. It allows you to believe you can flick between a high and low boost setting and keep your car normal. It rarely ever works out that way as most people don't have two separate ecu tunes they can flick between at the same time. It's a dicky concept of people fucking around with their cars. Tune your car to the highest boost setting you will ever use, tune it well and then drive it normally, off boost as much as you want and then mash the pedal when you need with confidence it is tuned for it. Don't waste your time with them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matt_lamb_160 252 Posted July 31, 2013 Thanks. PSI, I am thinking of doing my own, but would like to know what is out there first. I understand what you are saying Wes. I am not looking to switch between boost settings, I am looking to delay wastegate opening. I have a gated manual boost controller, but I wanted to know what digital options I had.

Wes 214 Posted July 31, 2013 I get ya, still better off with a manual one with the right spring tension in the gate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matt_lamb_160 252 Posted July 31, 2013 That is what I am setup to do atm and I think you are probably right. I should also clarify my last message. I do not mean I am trying to run more boost than the wastegate spring allows. I am trying to reduce partial opening of the wastegate before getting to max boost. Not sure if my message was clear (still not, haha) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PSI_LTD 37 Posted August 10, 2013 your wastegate shouldn't really be partially opening... maybe something else is a bit off? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matt_lamb_160 252 Posted August 19, 2013 It probably will not be an issue. It is not hooked up yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
