Turbosmart e-boost street for 2010
Hey guys I know this is a new product so many may not have seen it, much less have it, but at first glance it looks to be a pretty cool boost controller/boost gauge. I fi were to get it it looks like a perfect fit for the ash trash din with a little cutting required maybe. Anyway any comments on this piece would be appreciated.

hey, looks like an interesting product. kinda like a aem tru boost mixed with a greddy e-boost controller. turbosmart makes quality products, so I would assume this would function very well. do you have a price for this product or no bc it is so new? would be interested in other comments as well. good find!

My buddy has an older Tubosmart eboost... it works pretty damn well and it does reduce clutter by putting two devices in one. That said, nothing replaces a needle for a boost guage. Digital displays just aren't the same...

a digital readout for a boost gauge is a horrible idea. you simply cant read the numbers when boost builds. needle gauge is about 100 times more usable.
aside from that it appears to have very nice features for controlling boost curve
on a side note. I hate digital a/f gauges as well. a needle again is far easier to see whats going on at a quick glance.

i have to agree after putting in a digital boost gauge...
my problem w/ mechanical gauges are their accuracy...ive had 2 stewart warner gauges now, nd both came to me sitting on a # elsewhere from zero. one i was able to bang back to place, the other i had to discard because no matter which way i tapped the gauge, it wouldnt go to sit at zero...
my question is, for you guys running 40psi...what mechanical guages are you using? i'd prefer one that HAS vacuum in the gauge as well...
seems like stewart warner is the only one w/ a -25/40 gauge..all of autometer's gauges only go up to 35, and after that are PSI only style (like 0-50, 0-60).
