Default MSD boost controller

Is anyone using the new MSD programmable boost controller? Any success or horror stories?
thanks,
Jared

From other people who have it it only controls boost from launch to a set amount of time,it does not work like a normal boost controller and control boost all the time,the msd controller has to be reset to control the boost again and again....great for a drag car,not great for the street.

its going in a primarily race car so it sounds like that would work. any input on how it compares to the innovative?

I bought one to use on the sol but after getting it and seeing how it needed to be setup, I sold it. Geoff at full race i think was doing some testing on it also and was having a hell of a time i think. my sugetstion is stick to a manual Turbo xs and if you have no way to trigger the relays for high boost with engine managment, do it manually with a switch, or you can buy a timed box from msd that will trigger the relays

Ron Lummas runs it. I have heard as well that it is tuff to set up, basically you have to program the pwm instead of just controling it's duty cycle like most systems.
