^^^^a relay is a switch ...in this case an automati switch, that open and closes a circut. that is what makes the blinker go on and off...the realy says...On...OFF....On...Offf..


why not just buy a boost controler for like 25.oo....and call it a day....but i do like the idea of a dual stage boost controler.....

Cause JD thinks it's OK to pass a lot fo current throught whatever switch turns on the relay.

Relays are necessary when you don't want to run 10-20A (fuel pump) through a switch on your car.. You can run .1A through the switch, the relay handles the current.

JD thinks nothing of the sort, n00b-o-matic.

Stevemode is a gifted debater and honest salesman of quality goods, but he is not a technician. If he remembered anything I said, he'd remember I told him to run a Honduh headlight relay actuated by stock fuel pump wiring, because those thinks are the paperclips of the Honduh world - no matter how many you throw away, your desk drawer is always littered with them.

Haha, yeah. HT loooooves them like they love gay ****, but I've seen two dead out of the box and the $$$ pod-pillar mounted $500 piece of mojo was glitchy and unimpressive. Welcome to the real world.

txs dsbc ftw. I think if I add a ebc I would blow my engine the same day I install it. I am too greedy, so with the dsbc I only have two levels. in my case low=13 psi and high =23 psi I spend most of my time in high. so if I add a ebc, when that ferrari blow by me on the autobahn daily I would be upping the boost trying to keep up with him and bamm! blow my engine so no ebc for me. I am too greedy for the win.

Another thing I was reading on another site with a similar setup to what you're running is that those switches that you use do not like vaccume, so let us know how it goes. Another question is I see where you tee'd into the line from the wg acutator and the charge pipe and teed in the actuators. where does the line continue to? a MBC?
