what boost controller should i look at if i don't wanna spend more than say $100? i'm using e-manage to tune. i don't need an electronic one since the car is gonna be at same boost level at all times. also how hard is it to tune with e-manage? it hasn't been tuned cause it comes pre-tuned from greddy.

 

You don't need a controller if your not going to change the boost level.Just do it with the waste gate spring.

 

it's an internal wastegate. how do you adjust the spring on an internal one?

 

bump

 

Well what car did it come from be more specific. They are all different on the max boost.

 

read this it has good info http://www.beesandgoats.com/bo...ifold
thank HiProfile for this one

with that said, i say leave it on the gate spring.

 

on a 99 civis sIR. b16a2. bone stock internals.

just looking to go from 6 psi to 9 psi and get it re-tuned. i got a shop that will do the tuning i just need to have something to get it up to 9psi so they can tune it. manual boost controller or is there a way i can adjust the spring on the internal wastegate?

 

if the gate actuation rod is adjustable, shorten it = more boost.

the cheapest way to go is a manual boost controller.

 

so just shorten the rod until i'm boost to 9 psi? why do i need a boost controller if i can change the boost on that rod? eventually i'll be getting an electric one so i can change boost on fly but i'm running short on my funds for my build for this year

 

when it is hot as hell and need to change it, you will burn your hands.

you arent looking at a major difference in power from 6-10psi. it will be an increase. but the easiest way to facilitate it will be an MBC. look in the marketplace and see what sponsors have them and how much.

 

major different from 6-10 psi HAHA. only like 40 hp to the wheels atleast. i've been in a boosted civic that had his low on 6 and high on 10 psi and it was a huge different.

 

Hallman MBC

 

I ordered one of these today. http://www.xenocron.com/catalo....html
Real simple design and cant beat that price. Seems to have pretty good reviews.

that would be a selenoid for an EBC, the OP said he wants a MBC.

 

It is an actual EBC not just the solenoid. He said eventually he'll want an EBC so just throwing an idea out there.

Yup the HAllman PRO RX/ EVO is the ONLY MBC worth spending money on.

 

Just replaced my friends EE controller WITH a Halman, If you want it. LMK... 60 SHipped????

The hallman works WAY better than that EE controller. Boost hits very nicely, that "EBC" never worked quite right...

 

Which version EE does he have?

 

It was one out of the first run of them... It works, but the Hallman is way more solid.

 

I have the V.2 on order. Hopefully it performs better then the first version.

 

Ya its a cool deal for the price, but the Hallman MBC allows the SAME EXACT setup to spool ALOT quicker... Seriously noticable

 

well on an engine making 240 at 6 and 280 at 10 i guess thats cool.

been a long time since i have ran boost levels that low he hee. im mad i can only use 34 psi.

with all the options with boost by gear, thats the best way to go imo.

 

running 34 psi? bullshit.
