Good idea i think i might have to try it how much boost did you get out of ur s3 wga?

Way more than I think I should run. It has spiked over 26... I have held 24. At least 22-23 to redline.... I have the preload still at the stock 7-8 psi.

if i have an ext wg set up with the 9psi spring will the boost box alllow me to run 24-25 lb of boost because right now i have stage 3 with toys and delta44 turbo and on dab 3 it only hits 21 lb of boost

yes, it will override your DAB.
im interested in how well this holds boost also. i have a 14 psi spring in the EXT. but i was thinking of switching down to the 9 for first gear. Although ive heard the boost drops off a bit much

The d44's have tendency to drop a little boost up top from what i've been reading,but if it can hold more boost the boost box will do it.
I was wondering if it would be possible to get the light to come on when we've reached 100% duty cycle,or is the shift light going to cause a problem with this?

that would require tapping into other sources and lots of software rewriting. it'd be easy if it was a tuning unit also
ya i know they cant hold more than 24psi. but with the 9 psi spring wouldnt you have a hard time holding more than 18 psi?
I know what your getting at....the whole twice spring pressure thing.I don't think that applies with the boost box because it will shut the solenoid completely so there is no boost reaching the wastegate to get the boost where it needs to be a manual boost controller won't do that... i don't think pcm controlled boost will go that far.

Nah, it's easy. It's in there already, just not finished. You can't do the shift light at the same time, since it is only one LED, but you will be able to choose between them in the software.

I don't use the shift light anyway,it would be nice to know if i need to raise the gain or not i'm at 8 now and thinking about going to 10.The boost doesn't overshoot much .3-.4 psi so if i raised the gain it could increase the overshoot correct?
That's pretty high. What is your learning range? 3?
Yup 3...i think i'm beating a dead horse trying to get this thing to hold better,i'm pretty much maxing this little turbo and asking for more.I'm externally gating my exhaust manifold and getting a ported compressor housing with a 3" bellmouth so that might do the trick, there is only so much the boost box can do and making my exhaust mani flow better isn't one of them,beyond that it works beautifully.
