This is AWESOME, but any boost spiking with this set up? i built a similar MBS a while back, it was a dual stage. it spike when you mashed the gas in a high gear. example. 35 mph 3 gear or on interestate trying to pass a car in 5th. i tried misc fitting sizes, bleed hole sizes, pretty much everything. could never get rid of the 2-3 psi spike.

this is boost levels as long as its tuned for up to the max boost u run but ya fine tunning will be need if the low boost area was not tuned like most tuner just tune at WOT full boost.. but your probably confusing this with switching maps for different fuel octane.... witch all i knwo of is on turbo vw..

I used a vacuum solenoid activated via a levered micro switch on the throttle body before. Floored was low boost, mashed into the carpet was high boost. In reality, it didnt work because Id get too excited and mash it into the carpet no matter what :1
If you're local to a pull-a-part style yard, grab the giant firewall mounted black box off a mid 80's carbed honda. The ones with ten miles of vacuum lines. There will be about 8 of those valves in there + all kinds of useful vacuum fittings and such.




WORD to this brother

I have got a T valve with a **** on it, when you turn the **** down you can restrict air flow, i was wondering if that will work as a boost controller
