Hey everyone, well i recently boosted my Scion TC, ive always been about styling with minor engines mods on all my cars but always knew a little about engine work. However, since i began the journey of turbo charging my ride ive become addicted to boost, always looking for something to add to my setup.

Anyway, Ive seen on the Scion forums a lot of peopel use WOT Box, or Wide Open Throttle Box to control shifting at high RPM's....Ive wondered What your thoughts on something like this and if you use one, or know any information about....

Ive heard it keeps you from loosing boost while shifting, You can set up a 2-step sequence, etc...

Here is basically what a WOT Box Does if you dont know...

"The WOT Box is an electronic device that makes WOT shifting easy by reducing your engine's power for a very short timed period while you shift. It allows the synchros in your transmission to mesh easily, reducing the chance of missing a gear and damaging your transmission. If the input shaft on a manual transmission is not allowed to slow down enough it will lock you out of gear time after time. We have developed a solution to the problem by controlling the ignition at the shift point to ease the transition from one gear to another."
Also can control 2-step
