Hobbs switch - where to buy?
I have these in stock:
1-3 psi adjustable: http://www.lsxtune.com/shop/product_...roducts_id/576
4-6 psi adjustable: http://www.lsxtune.com/shop/product_...roducts_id/779
The units have a weather tight connector rather than exposed ring/screw terminals that many carry. I sell a connector kit here: http://www.lsxtune.com/shop/product_...roducts_id/841 Or a pre-assembled pigtail here: http://www.lsxtune.com/shop/product_...roducts_id/844

Frost, I was getting ready to order from you. But I want a wider adjustability since we don't yet know at exactly what boost we'll be turning it on. Do you have any like i've seen with wider adjustability?
The hunt for a reliable switch actually started with my own car... I had looked at the cheaper, wider range pressure switches that came with some budget methanol (and at least one big name company in the meth business actually) kits but I saw a few of them fail or lose consistency and decided to use the Hobbs switch. I have tuned many cars with them, and personally I prefer the second pump to come on early to ensure fuel demand is consistently met regardless of how fast boost comes up. If the customer leaves it up to me, I use the 1-3 unit that is preset to 2. I check them out with a hand pump, but they consistently come out to what is listed as the preset as you would expect. I'm not saying that there isn't some other application or that this is the best way, but it has brought me very consistent results.
