if you haven't bought it yet. save your money and buy a UTEC. a boost controler is a waste of time and money. plus you'll be seriously leaning your car out. save yourself a lot of headaches and do it right the first time.

i already have the Utec on my car, and the TXS turbo back exhaust .. including catless up and race downpipe .. so my next major addition is to go with a bigger turbo, and then FMIC ... but while i have almost all my gauges connected ... i figure ill run my wires for a DSBC if i decide to go that route .. unless you guys have a better thing to go to ??

The Utec has boost control option

I'm not totally familar with the Utec but I bet there is an input switch to switch to change boost maps like a dual stage boost controller acts

If you have a bigger turbo your definately going to need fuel pump and injectors

Don't waste your money on a boost controller if you have a UTEC. If you want to raise/lower boost a bit, use the ABC that is supplied w/ the UTEC.
