but yeah it would work great for traction limited set ups, it would just ramp it up with the mph.

What?!
The first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem.

Parish, I want more info on how this thing works. Do you run a boost line to it? Does it have a remote restrictor that you cut into the wastegate boost reference?

Parish, you might want to wire a button closer to your steering wheel, cause trying to mash that button while you're pulling hard G's and trying to keep it straight could be tricky.

That's a pretty slick little setup there parish. When's the turbo kit coming?

this controler has WAY more features than i will ever consider using, i will probably just use the dial a boost feature but i asked a few people and this one was highly recomended.
with the programable chanels it wont push the boost any higher than i have it programed for. the know also has a nice click when you turn it so i think i can do it on the go but if it is a hastle i will just turn it to the limit of whatever fuel i have at the time and leave it there. then just worry about the nitrous button(tow haul
) when i need it.

I can't wait until your turbo kit arrives.

More info please! This is what I want to do when I get my wet kit.

that they are both grounds and the switch just changes which one is grounded with each push but, I've never looked at a wiring diagram for it. I'll get the manual out and see if I can find out but, I'm not very good with wires.
