DIY Dual Stage MBC question??

[TTalon]

hey guys,
i was on the taboo speed shop website and i came across a lil write up of how to make a dual stage boost controller...

u need obviously 2 boost controllers and a 3 way ARO valve
im gona order 2 JoeP boost controllers and the ARO valve with a get a switch from a radio shack instead of getting the turbo xs one which will cost me 300 CDN dollars which i think is too much...
any suggestions or anything bad about doing this? please share your thoughts thanks...

Follow this link, build this MBC, make the dual stage, save yourself lots of money ove rthat JoeP MBC. THis one is the same design, but will cost you ~$5 at home depot, instead of the $70 or so that je wants for his.

so i just make two of those and grab the 3 way valve with a switch and im all good
is this as good quality as any other boost controller...i mean theyre all the same spring and whatnots...

Let me know where you get your switch from and how it works. I was making these from a chunk of aluminum and using a electronic switch till my supplier went under. Make sure that the spring and ball you use are SS otherwise they will rust over time and if it sticks closed, kiss your motor goodbye.

Yeah I realize this, but right now the only thing I need is the switch and I'll have my controller together for a whopping 9 bucks in parts and about an hour in labor.

Aw, *%$%*%$&*. I swear it was working when I posted. It was off of Gus' site-- he's passed away, and I'm afraid some of his sites are going as well.

The stock BCS can be used (somehow) to make a DSMBC.

 

[dsmturboawd]

gus's site has been down for about a week now.

someone did mirror it for him though.

 

[TTalon]

site still doesnt work and how can u use the stock bcs? maybe i wont need to purchase two bc's and jus reuse the factory one for low boost...??
