AEM Tru Boost

[1991_talon]

Just wondering if anyone else had one, and what they think of it. Also I think I have the spring pressure, scramble boost, alarm etc. down. What do you guys run your duty cycle at? I'm currently at 40.

I love mine.

I can't remember what sets are in it as I haven't played with it in a while.

I have a tru boost built into my ecu I'm looking for a gauge setup to accompany it though, but gotta have the 50psi gauge.. Otherwise I guess the serial gauge will just have to display my boost for me

One of the best electronic boost controllers I've used.

I was thinking the same I've been toying around with my spring pressure moving it up gradually to increase spool im at 9 right now.

i have been messing with my aem tru boost for a while now but never had good luck. it might be a user error on the setup. i got spring pressure at 15 psi crack pressure but have been still getting a few waste gate dumps on wot. its not holding well. its problay my fault. let me know if any of you get this problem or how you went about fixing it. Thanks and good luck!

wait a min.....just got back from a few street pulls and got it just about dialed in...this thing is crazy now!!! only thing im having problems with now is over boosting at high rpm's. i got a full system megan 3in. should i put the baffle back in there? would this slow down that turbo from over boosting? i got a external dump on there also. Thanks!

Well there is a warning setting that will shut off your ECU after you reach your desired boost level. Also it might be worth checking into how your duty cycle works. Alot of people do not understand it correctly, the duty cycle number is the %your car is running that setup per .06 seconds, the remaining time is free flow. Mine is at 75 meaning it is on for .045 seconds then off for .015 seconds and repeats. This is a pretty steady flow, just a little information on a side note. Good luck sounds like you are coming along leave the megan on I have pretty much the same setup and don't overboost.

I am also int he market for a boost controller and I am looking at the Eboost2 or the AEM tru boost. Can anyone elaborate on each?

 

[1991_talon]

I think this thread pretty much elaborated pretty much all the aspects of true boost, if you want to know more about how it looks and how to operate it there are some really nice instructional videos on youtube, I dont know about the other boost controller, but I give AEM 4.5/5

I just picked one of these up not to long ago, haven't had much of a chance to play with it, but as far as I can tell it is one of the best out there especially in its price range. With the upgrade can support up to 73psi this thing is awesome .

I am using the Truboost on a 20g with a tial external. I followed the youtube videos to set it up and it took awhile, but once you get it all figured out, it works great. I have a setting for about 12-13psi and then I have on that runs 20psi. Here are the links for the youtube videos.

There's four videos if you go to youtube.
