Blitz SBC electronic boost controller - Will this work on my '87 GN?

[gnwildman]

I was thinking about buying an electronic boost contorller and wanted to know if it will work on a stock GN setup.

If your car is stock, dont waste your money on an electronic boost controler. At least not now anyway. Start with the fuel system. Fuel pump, adj. regulator, volt booster, hot wire kit.

I have all of that. I was talking about a stock turbo setup except for an adjustable wastegate rod.

Buy the boost commander from Ramchargers. I have one, it works great, and was made for the GN

Why not just keep using the threaded wastegate rod setup? Shorten it for the max boost you can run on the given fuel in the tank and adjust the fuel pressure accordingly with an adj FPR.

Are you dying to spend $300+ on the Blitz unit when you don't even have a bigger turbo?

Dial in the boost normally around 15-16psi with 92 octane and leave it alone. If you plan to race and add better gas get a scan tool and EGT guage and use the same threaded wastegate rod..... Bore out the turbo exhaust side wastegate hole to .900" and you are good to go. You don't need a boost controller.

Save your money and get a good exhaust system or scan tool instead.

I like the fact that you can recall the peak boost with a blitz electronic boost controller. If im running my car at the strip I dont wanna be looking at boost constantly. You can use an electronic boost controller for ANY turbo car. Its not a waste of money if you have another turbo car down the road. Plus they look cool in your car. =)

Innovative Turbo Systems?

Don't know much about it, but there was an article in GMHTP about two Regals with that boost control system. One was Heath Elmer's, he he has a pretty good reputation. The article is here:
