    Boost Controller??

    I can't get the truck 5lbs over spring setting. With the manuel turn knob one it saw 28lbs at the texas mile (by accident and let off) I'm looking for something simple that works, What's a good one? Something that could go around 10 or more pounds over spring setting

    if you want a cheap boost controller that works OK then just use this one

    http://www.aemelectronics.com/tru-bo...ller-gauge-757

    This is what I use and for an electronic boost controller its relatively cheap but not the best - then again GOOD electronic boost controllers are expensive

    ~ Forged engine of some type ~ Ball bearing turbo of an unconfirmed size ~ 4L8000 trans ~ Beefy fuel system ~

    The best advice I have ever heard:... Only take B( . Y . )ST advice from someone that is CURRENTLY running a turbo setup close to, or bigger than what you want......

    For a race truck like yours... AMS1000 w/ Co2. Don't fool around with anything else... unless you want a second choice, an eBoost II

    ^^^EDIT: Mic beat me to one of them lol

    i have installed a at least a dozen and run a greddy pro fec controller, u can dial in how the wastegate opens, how fast it opens and what psi it starts to open and of course overall boost. ther expensive but so are motors.

    I like the eboost 2. I have heard it is a complicated install though. I want one but till I go forged I really have no need.

    The AMS1000 is a very nice one and $$$$ too, I have seen the eboost 2 also. The eboost might be a better choice for me, Thanks for the info
