im guessing you bought the solenoid?

how compact is the unit?

when I put the v500 in my car and get rid of the v3 im using that option, wayne suggested it so I trust him. He did mention its a little different to set up then a standard controller.

no I had a external greddy with the v3.
I now have a V500 to go in the car, and one of the options I am doing at install is the boost controller option.

I dont know enough to say if any solenoid will work but the one Wayne was selling me was very affordable, I believe well under $150.

I am using a boost controller with great success. I have it controlling my solenoid and keeping the valve shut up to 15 psi, at which time it starts to PWM. I then increase the boost after peak torque to broaden the torque curve.
