On the instruction it says to turn the screw 3 times first to raise it 1 psi and every other turn after that raises it 1 psi marginally. So I followed the instructions and turned it 3 times only to find out that i was boosting 10 psi when I am suppose to be boosing 6.5 psi based on the instructions. I'm not sure if they instructions are inaccurate or if my boost gauge is off

 

boost guage is right your turn it back down,.....

 

u have to turn it until u get the base setting, which is the boost of the spring. then from there its just 1 rotation per psi.

adjust it according to the boost guage.

Be careful with that 1 turn equals 1 psi... on mine it is more than one psi. I love the boost controller though... just have to get used to it.

 

I usually give mine a half-turn when I turn it up. That's usually closer to 1psi.....

 

I did the same thing. Wanted to turn it to 7 psi and ended up at 10. Played around with it for a few hours and now I can work it like a champ. Just play around with it, half-turn here, then back then 3/4 turn and back. You will figure it out.

 

I have that same boost controller but I have the TurboXS hp with a greddy turbo kit and I have found that the boost will fall from its seet peak. I was running about 10psi of boost, it would stay there for a short period of time then fall to about 8 psi. (all in 3 or 4 gear at the track) never doubt your boost gauge they usually dont lie. for me 3/4 turn on coarse setting was a bout 1 psi, up to about 8 psi than only 1/2 turn for one psi to get to 10 psi.

 

Well I ran my TurboXS Hig Perf controller also and it was set for around 15 and it hit 15 and wouldn't let it go any further, but at about 6000-6500 ropm it fropped to 14lbs. but other thatn that the controller is awesome in all of my experiences. Hope this helps.
