Boost Control.

What is the best way to control boost using a controller.

I did some searching on here and never found anything conclusive but seemed a few people ran a Hallman MBC but im not a fan of manual boost controllers.

So what are the best options for an electronic boost controller? Perfer to be able to adjust from within the cabin and knowing what im running.

Thanks.

I would suggest the AEM tru Boost controller and gauge... i will be running the grimmspeed 3 port. there is no need to be worried about controlling the boost. if your tuner setup the car then you go and change things, thats normally how it goes KAKA-BOOM

Looks like a good option.

I just want to be able to control the boost levels from inside the cabin, can make racing a lot easier at times.

Thanks

Give an example of why in cabin boost adjustability makes racing easier. You are probably correct. I would just like to learn your specific reasoning. What sort of racing scenarios, etc.....

bad idea.

Get a boost controller, get a tune, and don't touch the boost controller after that.

adjusting it is just asking for a $3k+ repair bill for your motor when you inevitably blow something up

A safe way to accomplish wut you are looking for would be to get a dual map setup coupled with the grimmspeed bc that way you can run 2 boost levels and be tuned to safely handle both.
