Just searching for a manual boost controller. And after reading bad things about the cheepo ones causing boost spikes/creep, i'm after a decent one!

I've read good things about these.

Anyone recommend any others or is an electronic boost controller the only option for consistency?

Cheers
Dan.

Just get a bleed valve, much cheaper, mine was about £10-15 from turbo Phil, holds boost perfectly

yip just get a bleed valve. Ball and spring style Manual boost controllers are great when they work well (and most do, reliably) but occasionally they mess up, you cant really go wrong with a bleed valve.

Cheers, a bit over priced then really.

Benny: just the brass type you use then.

Im using an electronic boost solenoid from a saab and a bleed valve. The bleed valve to set max boost (at 2nd stage) and the solenoid to switch it to higher boost. If you're running MJ im sure you can use an output to trigger at set rpm/boost?
