    Electronic boost controller options.

    I also like the thought of being able to turn the boost down and up in cabin for Gas reasons. My car is a daily driver and for now im only looking to run 12psi Seems like a whole lot of Pro for the EBC. What was the mistake? How did it occur? Electrical problem or possibly bad installation...
