Has anyone who is running the Haltech E6K installed their boost controller. I've installed a '87 Turbo II(j-speck) into a '78 Kelmark GT kit car that is about 1800lb. I've got a 3" exhaust with a racing beat pre-muffler and a supertrapp 3" in 4" out muffler. Since it is winter where I'm at I've only taken it on a couple of very short runs. I don't have a boost guage in yet, but I beleive I may be overboosting. When I give it half throttle I hear a loud whoosing sound which I take to be the wastegate working.(Also the car takes off likes it jet propelled!) Where does the controller hook up to, how much was it($$), where did you buy it and are you happy with it?

I've spent over two years putting this car together($$$) and I would hate to blow the seals out of it.

i haven't heard great things about the haltech boost controller. you can datalog with a laptop and see how much boost your getting. www.turboxs.com has a cheap manual boost controller that works pretty good. quite a few people have them with no problems
