The turbonetics black knob works well. Use the gray factory vacuum tee that goes to the wastegate and the compressor housing. On the 3rd part of the "y" run a hose to the inlet of the knob and have the outlet open to the atmosphere . With the knob closed it will make whatever amount of boost the wastegate is set at. Once you begin to open it, you bleed off the air pressure going to open the gate causing the boost level to increase . It is very sensitive so turn it a little at a time to get it where you want then lock it down. Hth

If you're interested, I have an unused manual boost controller "kit" that was put together and sold by a TB Board member many moon ago. It's basically a home-made version of the above description, except it has enough hose to bring a micro-bleeder (for fine boost control) inside your car in a handy spot. I never got around to installing it, and it is complete with the install instructions. $45 shipped to your door. PM me if you're interested in this kind of thing.

I have been doing some looking around online, Can you mount any boost controller inside the car? the reason I ask is one website shows to different ones with a big price difference.

I was looking for the same thing. Check out the Hallman manual boost controller @ boostcontrollers.com , they make a set-up for in car adjustments. I don't know if these will work with our cars , but maybe someone will chime in. Sam

I have a Hallman manual boost controller on mine mounted under the steering column. Works great.
