What are people's thoughts on boost controllers?

Is why I got termed "The Oracle" Baaahahahah! I dream such shit!!!

Now, a simple tee type of boost controller will serve you just fine.
Ensure you fit the restrictor into the line between the turbo and the tee-piece or the controller will not work.

You can plumb the valve into the car or leave it hidden away out front somewhere sos the local constabulary dont find it when they ask you to lift the bonnet, which they surely will!!!

You could boost the brains out of that turbo, up to about 18psi but with a stock ECU, I would NEVER boost it past 10....ever!!!

at the end of the day it's all about what you want to do with, is it just your daily or is it something to have some fun with on the weekend are you happy with the way it's runs now or do you want to see more horses out front pulling your chariot
I heard it said that no one one this site is ever going to be happy with the stock 8-10 psi when they hear that these little shitters can hand up to 20 psi if worked right
so there you go its all about what you want out of your little shitter

Biggest Problem as far as making more power is lack of tuners. I live in nw tassie and the only half decent tuners/ turbo mechanics are like a 2-3hr drive away.

It's going to be my daily once I fix the hg. I'd like to hit maybe 15 psi? But like E said gotta get a computer and that first.

Just so you know. I run a T25g with dual boost set at 6 and 11. I also run a aftermarket ECU,front mount cooler and my gearbox has a ratio change. I come out of most roundabouts in 3rd gear.

I about red line in top gear doing 160kph max.

So I think my ratio change helps with the boost coming on early.

And it holds boost no dramas all the way to redline.

Just thought you may want to know for future.
