Tullos Tech Prototype Electronic Boost Controller
 
This is the version 1

Same as in this pic, only mine comes with the solenoid and pigtail.

I could never get it to work. I think it needs to be sent in to Tullos Tech, which they will gladly do and make sure everything works.

I already had him send me the latest firmware chip, and just grew tired of messing with it.

$100 shipped with solenoid.

Some of the older boards needed a diode installed, if they were never installed the transistor is most likely dead. The older prototypes are pretty tough to tune. I have made the new ones very simple to tune, they have a real time display via USB and LED display on the controller. Both displays have simple menus to adjust the settings and display boost. The older prototypes used analog knobs, where as the newer ones use digital buttons(+,-, select). The older prototypes use a very similar algorthm that the new generation controllers, but its not as optimised or advanced. So if someone buys this, I highly recommend sending it to me so I can install the diode and replace the transistor. After this is done the controller will function fine. I will give a 50 dollar credit to the new owner would like to upgrade down the line to the new product once I receive the original prototype. Again, the older prototypes are difficult to work with, but once they are dialed in they will function fine. If you have any questions please ask. I also recommend that the new owner have an external wastegate since I believe it will be easier to tune.

how much would it cost to have the parts replaced?

pretty much...all he has to do it add one diode.

Nah, the diode is fine. It's the dodad he had to replace. FYI 8)

he said it was hard to setup and tune... i didnt know you had to "tune" a ------- boost controller. Electronic stuff is kinda out of my league. (as you can see with my datalogging problem)

the wiring/vacuum line stuff was simple, and he gave me a good base setup to run it...you do know its laptop/software controlled right?

Re: Tullos Tech Prototype Electronic Boost Controller
 
These boost controllers are awesome for the price, you can either use it with or without a laptop its very versitile just check out the Tullos Tech website...I persoanlly am waiting for the new version to come out but you can't beat the price for a EBC...bump for you ;)

Re: Tullos Tech Prototype Electronic Boost Controller
 
i knew you could do somehting by hooking it up to a laptop... what would i have to do to make it work? Tuning the car is taking alot out of me right now, im starting to think otherwise :-\

tullostech has a forum to get help with setting it up and dialing it in.

You and him might want to work a deal where you ship the prototype to me first, then I will ship it to him after I inspect it.

Wow, give Fook $100 so that you can get a $50 credit towards the other TT EBC, that is actually worth having. Simply amazing! :P

/sour grapes... Joey not skeered of knobs.
