Default Boost Controllers

CAN ANYONE TELL ME HOW DOES THE BOOST CONTROLLER HELP YOUR CAR? DO YOU NEED A TURBO? OR IS IT JUST YOU INSTALL IT AND DOES ITS THING?

YES YOU NEED A TURBO!!! It helps your car a lot, it allows you to raise/ lower boost pressure(hp).

no problem....everyone have their share of problems.

In order to have a boost controller you need a turbo, with the controller you get to control the power that the turbo puts out.


you cannot have a boost controller without a turbo, makes no sence.
