Very affordable gear based boost controllers
#1
I have a bunch of pics of my bike in general section listed, I recently started building gear based boost controllers much like what I have on my bike. I have a 6 stage fully adjustable boost controller where you can change the boost level in every gear 1-6. that is a little overkill, the basic system I sell gives you 4 stages of boost. 1 stage being your spring pressure from the wastegate.

1st gear: spring pressure
2nd gear: solenoid with bleed valve
3rd gear: solenoid with bleed valve
4th-6th ger: solenoid with regulator

I can make anything you want, I have made several custom ones for guys ranging from 3 solenoids with 3 regulators, 5 solenoids with 5 regulators, 3 solenoids with 3 bleeds for internal wastegate only etc.

I wire up the gear position sensor to provide grounds for each gear to be used to ground the corresponding solenoid. So you can have rock solid boost control.

Price for the standard one I build is $215 US + actual shipping + gps core charge if you can't send your gps sensor to me in advance.

Lead time is 3-4 days from the time I receive a deposit.

No one is perfect LOL

Just figured I would put it out there just in case. I have a guy in Germany, Hawaii, a few all over the states all seem very happy with them.

I see that Mike Shank decided to keep his turbo kit. You have any other leads now?

Only if you want to run more than 1 boost level. If you just want to run 1 boost level, your 6-7 psi then you dont need one. if you are like 99.999% of us turbo guys you think that now and a couple of months from now you will want more hp LOL. The more hp you get the harder it is to manage in the lower gears without having a boost controller. You wheelie or if you have a long arm you spin the tire hard.

With a gear based boost controller you can pin it in every gear (stock wheelbase that is a tad tricky) and put power to the ground versus short shifting due to wheeling or tire spin. <i></i>

i was running 11psi.. and it hink the boost controller would have been ideal..

Thankyou for your answer... i was thinkin 6-7psi wouldn't really need it... but later on once a few more mods are done.. i'll be looking for one of these... will keep yours in mind.. Cheers.Grantwww.blingpartsaustralia.com.au <i></i>

Sounds good, if you want to run multiple levels of boost, say 6 psi 1st
8 psi 2nd
10 psi 3rd
14 psi 4th
14 psi 5th
14 psi 6th

That is where the controller I make could really help out. No buttons to hit or switches to flip to change boost levels. If you only want say 2 boost levels and one of them on the horn button you can do that for next to nothing.

Either way, willing to help anyone out whether selling a controller or explaining how to do one yourself etc.

G'day Greg, does the controller have a read out so as you know what maximum boost settings are for each gear, or do you use the boost guage to set them up?
The AMS1000 has a small screen with values for each setting, is it similar?

No readout, with regulators you can use a boost gauge to set them, thats how i set mine, with bleed valves its more of a trial and error method. The AMS1000 has tons of features something like this doesn't, thats part of the reason this cost 25% of what AMS does.

I used to have a MSBC1 and sold it as I wasn't happy with the GPS function, it worked terrible, and the controller had some erratic behavior that almost threw me off my bike at 120 mph, i decided I wanted to make my own.

When I set mine up in the garage I use shop air to the inlet of the controller and a boost gauge on the outlet. I sometime adjust on the street and I simply slowly increase the solenoids to get where I want to be.

i run a bleed valve for 1st and2nd gear, and regulators for 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th. I can also switch off GPS mode and runthe controller using 2 manual toggle switches to fire 2 and 4th gear solenoids, and I have a 6 LED gear indicator to tell which gear I am in.

I think you have all bases covered Mr Smith with this setup..very impressive and cost effective. Well done <i></i>
