EBC Wiring
I need to set up EBC in my Brain built MS3x and I want it to be able to switch between wastegate pressure and a higher boost setting. I wasn't sure how to properly set that up and I'm having trouble finding it online. I know the boost controller fails to open so can I just put a manual switch in the 12v signal to the controller or do I need to use a table switching output from the MS3? I assume using table switching is the correct method, but I'm not sure where to pull an output from in the ecu/wiring.

i was doing wastegate / solenoid via simple switch.
switch inline between solenoid and MS on the ground. if off, solenoid fails open and you hit wastegate. switch on, and you control the solenoid.

^same here. Constant 12V to the EBC, other side goes to a toggle switch, which then goes to Boost Control output. A tableswitch would be possible to use two different boost targets and use the EBC for both, but not necessary if one of those is wastegate pressure.

I went a bit fancier. I used a rotary switch to make a 0-5v 6 position switch. Then used a table to blend boost control. So 6 position of boost from waste gate to max boost
