MANUAL BOOST CONTROLLER INSTALLION
« on: September 09, 2011, 10:24:00 PM »
INSTALLED BOOST CONTROLLER- into the intake line, and had the wastegate tube coming into it..in the arrow direction it had the one top nipple unplugged? but as i took it for a drive..the thing boosted all the way up and i felt the engine cut out..so what do i do?? so that's a good thing that the engine cuts out at 11-12 cause something bad coulda happened!!

Which boost controller did you purchase? The type with a tee valve do not work very well

Have to be very careful when messing with the boost, ESPECIALLY if you do not have a chipped ECU
