MS2 High Boost Switch?

Post by SLEEPYDUB »

Real simple question for you guys, I just dont know how to implement it.

Currently I run about 10psi on wastegate, and have my map tuned up to 30psi. I want to be able to run on wastegate and when I need more power have the ability to hit a button or flip a switch and have it jump to my high boost settings. Is this possible? How can I accomplish this if so? I am using an Electronic 4port Boost controller.
Thanks!

Put a switch on the power wire to the boost solenoid and off should be waste gate pressure if plumbed correct

Isn't that what the throttle is for?

Or are you wanting a "Valet Mode"?

Are you looking for less power than "On the spring" gives?

I think he wants the 30psi on a switch for "when necessary". If it's tuned for 30psi, (as stated above) you can have a switch in-line with the boost solenoid to keep it deactiveated and cruise around on low boost, then flip it to activate the solenoid for high boost.

Dose the electronic boost controller allow you to change boost from inside the car?

Looks like ms2 only has a single table for boost control. So cutting power to solenoid to run wg line then back on to get boost control
