im a gsr owner with nitrous and im thinking of a turbo, this is probley a dumb question but with a boost controler could you turn of the boost completley off. im wondering for daily driving could you just have not running

no. you can only raise boost with a boost controller.

 

you could set your turbo to spool at say 2psi. then have it go up from there with the boost controller. or just have it at 7psi all the time and still be safe. your choice.

 

Oh ya, you wanna see something really cool? hit the nitrous button while you are boosting make sure to check the rearview mirror as your stock block gives out....

 

on my turbo i can boost 0 psi since i have a internal wastegate.......but not all turbos have that.....and i dont know why you wouldnt want to boost??? if you just dont get on it you can stay in vacuum and not even reach boost at all!! when i just cruise around i barely ever boost!

and dont squeeze and boost!

 

so with a internal wastegate you can set the boost as low as you want, .im talking for daily driving i to want to wear my motor, also in the winter my car is my daily driver and when im in the snow i dont want to be boosting anyways. one more dumb question, do you only have turbo lag when you are in 1st gear becuase once your over 4000 rpms the turbos spooled up and if you redline then shift the turbo will keep making power right.....

 

Moron.

 

How bout check your hood first before you check the rearview mirror.
