You want someone to "tune" your boost controller?

really dont feel like destroying the a 1500 dollar turbo by setting the duty cycle incorrectly, and a dyno is a much safer enviroment to do pulls than running it down the street

I have the same boost controller. there are set up faqs online. Just do 4th gear pulls on the highway and watch your boost guage. Adjust the duty cycle accordingly for each gear

Not sure how you can destroy your 1500 dollar turbo setup by having the duty cycle set wrong but ok.

If you are looking to set up boost by gear here is a good thread.

i found a couple of good write ups. You start with your boost set low....(that's how u wont mess up your 1500 dollar turbo) then set the start duty cycle for each gear to eliminate spiking. Then you set the whole duty cycle and once tha's dialed in, then raise the boost...
as the previous person said, there's plenty of write up out there...just keep the boost low till u get things straight, and dont' get pulled over...
