FM Boost Controller vs Ebay Ones
#8
But I've seen it done and it works.
If you're looking for in-cabin to be able to run different settings its kinda bad/not precise: you'll never be able to adjust it perfectly from one setting to another.
Just get an ebc or bcs in that case.

I dunno why I want one. The 5 feet of vacuum line or whatever it'd be doesnt sound good though. I wasn't talking about a remote adjustment, although I like the sound. Is there a way with a in cabin adjustment like the one I linked to be disconnected when you're not tuning? I just get annoyed when I'm within 1psi of my goal but I don't want to stop, lift the hood, adjust, and repeat. I'd like to hook up a **** for tuning purposes and then take it off.

EBC in general is more hassle than it's worth. People who claim otherwise are gay communists.
Just get a good ball-n-spring MBC, take the reference from a point after the intercooler but before the TB, set it and forget it.
I wish I still had the little eBay-sourced unit I had which was similar to the one in the second picture of the first post. I ripped it out and replaced it with an expensive TurboXS MBC when I was fighting a boost sag problem, which was before I had my "Eureka!" moment and realized that the problem wasn't the boost controller but rather the location of the reference signal. (I was still trying to use the little nipple on the compressor outlet at the time.)
I'd have liked to have had the opportunity to do an A-B comparison between them.
