Default 2 Stg Home Made Boost Controller

I know some of you guys on here have made some home made MBC's, but my question to you guys is this. Have you ever made a 2 Stg Home Made Boost Controller. I was kinda intrested in buying one, but for 100+ dollars, id rather put that money toward something more useful like a wideband.

Been there, done that with a 12v Open/Close Vacuum Solenoid. Worked, but Running full boost all the time was more fun so I gave up on it.

Still got the Solenoids though.

Ya, I see it is usable in Hotrex's situation. I plan on running the TullosTech EBC the season in the 2 settings. High set for 18-22.5psi and low for 11-14psi.

Last season I had it for 7-11psi and really only want to use 11 so it was a waste of time wiring it up for me, so I pulled it.
