Default Boost by gear set ups?

Just curious to which route most of you guys took to run boost by gear... The only options I've heard of are through Hondata's s300 or with Turbo XS's 3 or 4 stage boost controller...

Currently running AEM's boost controller w/ s200...

Any pics and advice is appreciated!

The smartest thing you can do is upgrade to s300 and use boost by gear built into the s300 system. http://www.phearable.net/shoppingcar...ade-p-169.html

Other then that, you could use an apexi avcr. IMO it's a waste of money if you can upgrade your s200 to s300.

Thanks that's exactly what my tuner recommended, just seeing if everyone agrees...

Thanks again!

Upgrading to S300 would be the best thing to do in your situation

Yup, what he said lol.

I set up my boost by gear not too long ago and man-o-man.... dunno why I didn't do it earlier. 15psi in 3rd and 24psi in 4th gear feels gooooood

NLR AMS 500 or 1000 will do the trick and you can adjust ramp rates and psi "WITHOUT A LAB TOP"

Since you already have S200 then upgrading is the cheapest route but Neptune RTP also has boost by gear and it's cheaper then hondata
