You dont have to put it back to stock and I use the same one, BstC and I love it! Controls boost inside the car with turb of a knob!
 
I was going to post the same question ....I just got a 3" down pipe with a external wast gate and the boost controller he gave me is a manual one

I guess for the money and all I want it to do is control the boost from inside the car ....BstC would be the better choice for me...

"my1stgn"...do you use the 2 levels of boost control it has...Like one for the street and the other for race...Can you do that with it or did I read the web site wrong..
also how touchy is the knob..and is there some kind of safety button you got to push then turn the knob...
I would hate for some person to get in the car and they think its some kind of small amp for the radio...lol..
 
If you want to spend a little more the Greddy Profec B spec II is a nice unit. I run one and really like it. Lot's of features. I've also had great success with the MBC's. HTH james

Well the two levels are for a seperate "trigger" like say you have boost level set @ 20 psi, then you could set your second boost level trigger for say 3rd gear. Then set your second boost down to around 16-17psi so when you hit 3rd gear and your reach a higher load, your boost will drop down to around 16-17 psi to prevent any type of damage.

The knob is adjustable while driving. So if your on the street you could turn the knob down and your boost will be less, say around 17psi (I also run Alky) and then when I go to the track I turn it up to around 22-24 psi. The knob is not touchy but if your at WOT then you could turn the knob and see the boost go up! Its pretty cool! You could also set when the BSCT kits in to control boost. Hope this helps!
 
Now- Greddy Profec B spec2 (for sale:D )

Tomorrow- MAFT pro boost control setup :cool: :cool:

Love the Greddy, but decided to go with the Pro for all controls (timing, fuel, boost).

I'm running the AEM true boost controller/guage. The guage is a little hard to follow because the digital moves so fast but overall I like it. It is adjustable boost settings from in car and switchable scramble mode for different temporary boost settings. Pretty cool stuff! Was kindof expensive though (I think it was somewhere around $260). I'd still buy it again.

MAN that sound too COOL!!:D :D ..I gotta get one of these now...My work bench is getting full of parts to be put on it still..one more isn't going to hurt...;)

Guys I am chiming in here, can the BSTC boost command be used with an external wastegate? And if so, how do you route the hoses/wiring?
 
Q-boost here. It was cheap when I purchased it and works quite well. You can route it inside the cabin if needed.
