Default grainger valves as boost controllers

How many of you guys have experienced or have used these valves as a boost controller? What are your thoughts and opinions? Do they hold boost well or do they spike like crazy? I've herad some pretty mixed reviews. Thanks

just get a turbo cs manual controller they work great for the price. Esepcailly the high performance one.

The manual valves you see out there work but not as good as good manual controller the turbo xs stuff defintiely helps spool you can talk to direp972 as well many people on here good success wit hthem

::shrugs:: Vishnu includes a Dawes Device-type boost controller with their stage zero package for the WRX... seems good enough for the $1800 buck package.

my friends use them on turbo dodges... Gary Donovan runs one on his K-car... 35psi of boost, low 10 second E.t's, no problems...

so if i have an internal wastegate set to around 4 psi it would hold pretty steady at say 10 or so in all gears?
