Default excuse me for asking the nooby question...but can you help answer it?

if you have a boost controller and you shut it off completely...will you still be boosting?

is a electronic boost controller better than a manual boost controller in operation?? i mean yes the electronic one will be more precise about psi but anything else?

Alright well since your a noob, and I was a noob at some point im going to be nice about this.

If you dont have a boost controller you will be boosting off of the wastegate spring.


Manual boost controller/ there are dual stage ones, inside car ones, and under the hood ones.

Most people that are in the high horse power racing look in to dual stage mbc's or inside of the car ones.

Electronic boost controllers are okay

I perfer a mbc

Yes. But, remember, you can never boost a lower pressure than your wastegate spring.
