Dual Stage Boost Controller V2 (Black)

What’s the first rule of boost control?

Ensure you have an over-boost cut-out. This safety feature is built into all factory, aftermarket & programmable ECUs. Make sure it is set at a sensible & reasonable limit. Increasing the boost will put more load on your engine, and there are other tunes-related factories you must always consider. If in any doubt, speak with a professional tuner/calibrator.
 

Can I use this on any turbocharged engine?

If your engine is turbocharged and uses a boost-based actuator for wastegate flap style control, then yes. This Boost Controller will work on boost-based internal wastegate actuators and external wastegates. It will not work for VGT (Variable Geometry) Turbochargers, also known as VVT (Variable Vein) and VNT (Variable Nozzle) Turbochargers.

How much boost can I add?

This will come down to the rest of your setup & tune. If in any doubt, we recommend you contact a professional tuner or workshop for advice here.

What is Gate Feature?

Gate Feature is a unique Turbosmart feature that ensures our boost controllers can give you the best possible response. Turbosmart’s Boost Controllers can provide the most aggressive boost curve by manipulating the pressure signal into your actuator.

Can I turn my boost down?

Using a correctly installed Turbosmart Boost-Tee, you can adjust boost from around your base mechanical spring pressure (in your wastegate or actuator) up to usually around 2-3 times the base pressure. However, you cannot use these devices to turn the boost down lower than the base spring pressure.

Is one click one PSI?

Either way, one click is relative to your engine and your turbo. The more efficient it is, the fewer clicks you need to achieve more boost. However, as the boost rises, efficiency decreases. This means higher boost levels. You’ll need to work harder (more clicks) for more boost.

Can I switch Boost Settings on the fly?

You sure can! Flick the rocker launcher-style switch any time you like.
