electronic boost controller

[mtg6486]

i recently upgraded the turbo on my rear mounted sts system and need a better way to control my boost. i currently have a manual boost controller installed on the car but sts recommends upgrading to an electronic boost controller. does anyone on here have experience with the current controllers on the market and can you guys make some recommendations? im looking for something that is easy to use has at least 2 boost settings.

Care to give a small review on it for curious folks? Features, etc

[S.J.SLEEPER]

its got so many options its rediculous... while at the same time being pretty easy to use.
you can set boost to ramp by time/gear/ or mph
it has a scramble boost option...say you're set at 6psi limit for d.d., stupid mustang comes up next to you reving his 4pointchet... you just hit the button once and it will set psi limit to your preset amount (d.d.=6psi, race=14psi)
it also can turn on auxilary equipment such as secondary pumps,meth injection, warning lights, etc..
you can also "T" off the solenoid to control twin turbos ( althouh dual solenoids prefered)

Way to much to list.
Alot easier to install, program & adjust versus the AMS500 or AMS1000 (ams1000 is the bomb but unneeded in your levels of hp)

Definitly realiable and proven many times to be worth the $550.00

e-Boost2 allows the user to control, monitor, map and compensate boost. But e-Boost2 is a lot more than just a boost controller – it can also control water spray, methanol or nitrous injection, manage shift/warning lights and read/monitor RPM. While e-Boost2 is fitted with a state-of-the art software, it has been designed to be easy and logical to use.

Boost Levels: up to 6 levels of boost.
Boost on Demand: provides instant overtaking power at your fingertips
Gear-based Mapping: set a different boost for each gear!
Adjustable Boost Levels: program boost against TIME or RPM.
Aux Output: fully programmable; controls water spray, methanol or nitrous injection.
RPM Compensation: eliminates boost drop-off at high RPM.
Peak Hold/Max Boost Recall: monitors boost and RPM.
Gate Pressure: eliminates wastegate creep.
Overboost Shutdown: provides added protection for your engine.
Display: programmable, can be configured to KPA, Bar or PSI.
Auto Dimming: with backlit buttons for hassle free navigation.
Optional Accessories: Dash and roll cage mounting kits, shift/warning lights and a full range of spares.

Just so you know, I'm not just saying its good, I'm using it on my car.

[LTb1ow]

Just cause you use, does not mean its good at all

thanks guys that sounds like a pretty good unit how is the install pretty straight forward?

[LTb1ow]

So can it trigger a meth pump and a fuel pump separate or is it only one aux trigger out?

hmmm decisions decisions i like the gauge pod style one i can pop it right into the current boost gauges spot or do i save the 200 and get the more basic box style eboost and throw it into the arm rest storage area

[S.J.SLEEPER]

Eboost 2 and dont look back.

How do you like your sts system? I was considering buying one myself.

The STS kit is like a love hate relationship. When she is working, she works great but i have had a few problems here and there along the way that i had to address. There is a lot of piping in the mix that has the potential to blow off. Ive gone thru my entire system and upgraded the worm gear clamps sts gives you to the better sealing t bolt clamps and that has made a big difference. When i upgraded my rear to a moser 9" i had a few clearance issues i had to deal with but nothing that cant be fixed. After everything i still like the kit but i would just be ready for a few hiccups alone the way.
