Item is assembled and bleeder hole drilled, i have 8 of them currently.

They hold steady and are easy to change.

I have these all here now...no mass reproduction but I will make more if needed. This style has been around a long while and I just have them made up for local tuning customers that need a good (actually working) manual boost controller so we can get through the tuning appointment.

These work well and are solid...they help spool up as because they dont open until the wastegate needs to, which keeps it closed for longer and doesnt leak boost prematurely. The bleeder holes are carefully machined in with a 0.020" hole to prevent boost spiking from this type of controller.

This would be perfect for my colt. Can you put up a pic of what the top of those look like? The side view makes it look like the fitting is coming right out of the top of that adjustment knob. Is that really how it is? So everytime I adjust my boost, the fitting is now pointing in a different direction?

You got it! That is exactly how it works...but once you get it set, how often do you need to change it?

Honestly at the track I have second one set for higher boost...the other set for low boost (street), just swap out the controllers.

Thanks for the responce, but I thnk I'm going to pass then. I adjust it enough that I'd probably get a little annoyed by it. But for someone who never touches it once it is set, looks like a good deal! Good luck with the sale.

its really not all that hard honestly...pull off hose, loosen adjusting nut...turn in/out to raise/lower boost...tighten adjusting nut...reconnect hose
