OMG. I sold that bitch so fast.. Hated that thing.

Here is the functionality for you:

Start boost: this is a number in PSI or BAR (depending on your settings) that the Profec wil start opening the wastegates. This allows you to hold the gates closed as long as you can before they open for better spool.

Gain: This is a number in percentage, that tells the Profec how fast or slow to regulate the wastegate.

Set boost: This is a number in percentage ABOVE your base boost, that you want.

If you have ANY boost creep issues, then that Profec will play hell with you. Good luck!

I have kinda figured mine out. No boost creep. But now, almost turned off, I still go past 11psi..... I dont want that!

However, spoolup is extremely fast!

I said "**** it" and put an MBC in. I am going to probably get the new Greddy one thats more like the old school one.

everyone does tend to bitch about these. I refuse to give up, but do worry about the boost past 11psi right now. Even with my "Start Boost, "Gain Boost" set to "O", I still blow past 11psi.
