What are the benefits of an electronic boost controller?
Electronic boost controllers have many benefits not found in manual controllers. Our electronic boost controllers have an Overboost Protection function which acts as a safety feature. This is to prevent, boost over your desired maximum.
They also can be used to activate an auxiliary device, such as a meth injection or a secondary fuel pump. Furthermore, they offer boost correction settings to help eliminate boost drop off at higher RPM (RPM input needed) and can be configured to read in multiple units (PSI, KPa, BAR). Lastly, they are also capable of recording the peak boost and RPM being measured by the unit.
