I have the home made boost controler in my car now.

i can get it to run 10psi in 1st and 2nd but it will spike wayyyyy too high in 3rd 4th and 5th at wot.

i can retune the boost contoler so i have 10psi in 3rd 4th and 5th but i only have like 7psi MAX boost in 1st and 2nd is about 8psi MAX


do you guys thing that a electoinc boost controler would fix my issuse?

 

What are your mods? Have you ported your wastegate? Need more info from you.

yeah its because you used a **** home depot one. If you are competent you need to make a manual ball and spring controller or buy one. I cant believe that people endorse those pluming valves they SUCK in every way. It also sounds like you have a midpipe on the car...

 

Get a Profec B and be done with it.

 

what formerporscheguy said.

 

Okay thanks guys.
buying one this week

 

what about the fact that boost is load dependant? you shouldent be able to hit the same peak boost in 1st and 2nd as you can in 3/4/5.

and yes, the home depot brand sucks...

 

yeah that is a great point. thats what the ball and spring is there for in the manual controller and the solenoid with the electrical controller. They move while you are boosting to maintain the same boost. The home depot valves are just that and they stay right where you adjusted it.
