What kind of manual boost controller would you guys recommend that would go inside the car and not under the hood. Got a 95 gt if that makes a difference, thanks guys.

just FYI:
(i know you man not want to go this route, but i'm putting it up in case someone else finds this thread with the search function and DO want to do it themselves...)


You can purchase a needle valve for ~ $10.00
shopping


then you simply slap a couple of barbed plumbing fittings on each side (cost ~$1.00 each)
shopping


Then you push on your vacuum lines, zip-tie them on, and start testing!

Pros: more specific boost settings. Cheep. easy.
Cons: no "1 PSI" click option.

This would be perfect to mount inside the car, as you can fine tune it while driving. Or it works well under the hood because its metal -- its durable and heat resistant.

All parts can be purchased at Ace or Home Depot or whatnot

Of course you're more than welcome to purchase a boost controller for $90.00 as well. Both will work fine :)

you can route the thing wherever you want with vacuum line. Just get the vacuum line into the cockpit and mount the controller wherever you want.

or you can buy a remote digital one.

It can be mounted anywhere but in all honesty I wouldn't get any and run wastegate spring. That's the safest reliable way to control boost.

they can be mounted anywhere. they are made of metal and are just a mechanical device. ... ... plus these only air going through them, so you can mount them upside down, right side up, whatever...


any brand, any type, any boost control, can be mounted inside.
