Unless I'm failing at the internet, which is possible, on Amazon the AEM tru boost is $280 and blows, and the Eboost street is $293 and awesome.

 

If you know a programming language very well, and have a little electronics knowledge, you could build one yourself.

 

I was thinking the same thing...just need pressure transducer and a PLC controller and some solenoids....I have the stuff here at my work but the PLC would be the size of a small shoe box...I like compactness of the eBoost2 though, can't beat all that power in a little gauge basically!

 

so for a 90% street car looking to make 1000+ to the tire which eboost will best suit my build, will do some more research but do they have timed boost?

 

Either will work but the EB2 is the one with the timed based option.

 

E-Boost Street capability -
- 40 PSI MAP sensor built in
- Live boost/vacuum diplay
- Peak boost re-call
- Two stages (internally or externally switched)
- AUX Output (triggered by MAP or RPM)
- Overboost safety shutdown (reverts to spring pressure if hit)
- RPM based boost correction
- Password protection (Pin Lock) to keep people from changing settings
- Cal also function as a tach and shift light
- Displays PSI, BAR, or KPA
- 1/4 din form factor




E-Boost 2 capability -
- 60 PSI MAP sensor built in
- Live boost/vacuum diplay
- Peak boost re-call
- Six stages (internally or externally switched) in sequential mode (six different sequential options) or 4 via external switching
- AUX Output (triggered by MAP or RPM)
- Overboost safety shutdown (reverts to spring pressure if hit)
- RPM based boost correction
- Password protection (Pin Lock) to keep people from changing settings
- Can also function as a tach and shift light
- Displays PSI, BAR, or KPA
- Time based boost control
- Audible programmable alarm
- RPM base boost mapping (different than correction)
- Boost on Demand (additional time based "push-to-pass") stage
- programmable switching delays (for limited traction applications)
- two optional programmable LED's (for use as shift lights, boost target lights, warning, etc)
- Gauge type form factor (60 and 66mm)
- 5 different face and bezel color variations (to match existing gauges or vehicle interior)
- Also has programmable boost pressure graph on face



And on and on and on

 

The Aux output on these E-boost setups; can they be used to control meth? I think I'd like that better than a hobs switch.

 

Yes.
They are a grounded output typically used for meth injection or nitrous control.

At the end of the day they can control just about anything you want.
The controller just grounds the AUX Output wire when the boost or RPM target parameters are reached. It does not know whats connected to it.

 

eboost2 looks like it will win me over lol, thanks for the input guys, Op I hope you got the info you needed

 

Sounds like a guy might as well get the eboost 2 right away

 

yeah, its very nice! I can help dial it in!

 

I say boost leash. I will be picking one up for my set up here soon. Best bang for buck I have found so far.

 

^^^ Did you notice that it needs CO2 to operate?

I like the PBC-1 mostly for the fact that it learns your WG. It also does what an E-Boost Street does with some of the features of E-Boost 2 and without the price tag.

 

When I get that far i'll be asking for lots of help from guys like you Nate and Carl lol.

I have zero first hand experience, but there's a guy in MN running twins and he had a bad electrical problem with his, TT383LT1 is his name on here i think?

 

How hard is it to program the eb2 for time based boost control?

 

SSC (Sequential switching function C): Timed sequential switching function C allows the boost groups/set-points to be active then
switched at predetermined time intervals. This switch logic could be applied in a drag racing situation where you want to switch boost
levels at known time intervals within your elapsed time (ET).
 With SSC active dS1-dS6 will appear in each boost group.
 These time intervals can be entered as the amount of time you want each set point to be active before switching to the next
set point.
 Time delays are in increments of 1/10
th
of a second, with the maximum allowable being 99 seconds.
 dS1 will refer to the amount of time SP1 is active before switching to SP2, dS2 to the amount of time SP2 is active before
switching to SP3 and so on.
 Earthing the orange wire with a switch will reset the timer and switch to SP1/BG1.
 Earthing the green wire will start the timer and the time interval dS1 during which SP1 will be active.
 At the end of the time interval dS1 the unit will switch to SP2 and SP2 will be active for the time interval dS2.
 The same procedure will happen for all active set points (determined by the nSP parameter in the setup menu)
 Once the last time interval has ended the unit will continue to operate at the final set point.
 Note to skip a set point/boost group set the dS parameter for that group to equal zero.
 This is a solely time based switching method and is not dependant on switching except for the reset to SP1 (earthing the
orange wire) and a GO (earthing the green wire) which will start the timer

 

I was waiting on this.^^^^^ LOL

 

I've got the msd and it works great. There are a lot of guys going real fast with them

 

Seems no one has mantioned the Apexi AVCR. Gear specific boost and a pretty solid unit. I have used them several times and pretty happy with them. If I need more than my Halman can provide that is probably the unit I will go to.
