heres the situation: i have no money and really need a boost controlller.
my freinds say they can make me one for around $5. is this a good idea? my freind has one on his supra that is holding at 15psi, so it seems reliable. rob was tellin me about somebody building these too. are they a good alternative to lets say a "reasonably priced" turboXS manual one? what are some thoughts on this. thanks in advance. -------------------- 2001 Chevy Silverado ext. cab 4x4

QUOTE (POS AWD @ Jan 13 2004, 05:45 PM) Home made ones can work well, if you use the right spring. Too stiff or too soft, and it can be worse than the stock solinoid. To be perfectly clear...the springs can be changed out in a home-made boost control in less than 5 minutes. So the wrong spring is not a total loss, just time to refigure the spring rate. -------------------- In Loving memory of David T Crebo
