2G Manual Boost Controller, not pushing any more boost

[Kai Hefner]

Hey all,
I read an older thread about a cheap manual boost controller that actually worked. This one: https://www.amazon.ca/Manual-Boost-...49498443&sr=8-1&keywords=nxs+boost+controller
I’ve decided to buy it to see how it works for me. After installing, I tried to turn to change how much boost I was pushing. After some tests I ended up turning the boost controller end-end with little to no change in boost pressure.
Do I maybe have it hooked up wrong? The bottom line is going to my wastegate and the top one is going to a nipple on my intercooler piping. I’m running an evo3 16g.

Thank you dude! Got it hooked up and now my car isn’t stuck limping at 10lbs. It’s super rowdy

A friend of mine had that Turbo Smart unit. Never cared for it. He had some odd issues that made no sense. Talked him into a Hallman and issues went away.

Hopefully you have a better experience with it than we did.
