Aem Tru-boost

Hi,

Anyone running the new AEM TRU-BOOST? Didn't find any review about it.
That new EBC seems to be good and not to expensive compare to the HKS EVC.

Thanks.

Yeah only 29 PSi, but for people who are not runing over 29 PSI, still a good EBC?

Bump for some review!

we have used the truboost here. its an awesome unit. works as well as a manual and is used as a gauge as well. over all its pretty awesome for the price. the only downside i see is there is still some problems with taper but i think adjusting the wastegate open pressure on the truboost will cure it.

it is only good to 29psi but you can buy a sensor for it to run up to 75psi so for the cost i say its still one of the best out there.

I think it's ugly.

But a good unit. I like looks. Call me superficial.

is it basically a hose from the actuator connected to a solenoid valve and another hose from the solenoid valve to a pressure sensor and surge tank using a t-joint? and of course electrical.
