The e-Boost electronic boost management system is the culmination of many years of research, development and innovation, with countless hours spent testing on the dyno, the race track and the drag strip. The e-Boost is the worlds first re-programmable boost controller utilising FLASH memory technology, making it compatible with future software upgrades, meaning your e-Boost will never be out-dated. The e-Boost is more than just the best performing electronic boost controller, it is a complete boost management system, making Turbosmart a world leader in boost control systems. This revolutionary product is loaded with features, squeezed into a package small enough to fit in the palm of your hand:



Features :



The latest in Hi-tech electronics, featuring a 16 bit RISC based FLASH memory CPU – faster and smoother boost response

Utilises the latest in surface mount technology – lighter, smaller and ultra compact

Electronics are housed in an anodised billet aluminium alloy housing – offering durability and reliability in harsh race conditions

Programmable gate pressure function to totally eliminate wastegate creep - you tell the wastegate when to open

Three internally or externally activated and individually programmable boost set points

Drag racers - improve your launch, run a different boost in each gear

High accuracy boost and vacuum display, readout accurate to within +/- 0.5% of full scale, boost gauge no longer required – great value

Readout can be tailored to suit your needs – display can be configured in KPA, Bar or PSI

Easy to read seven segment display with programmable bar graph and glow in the dark buttons

Programmable auxiliary output – e.g. water spray control, water/methanol injection, boost light

Programmable audible warning alarm – excellent for over-boost warning or full boost confirmation

Peak hold/Max Boost recall function

Revolutionary gauge type construction allows many practical mounting solutions – 66mm in diameter 55mm long. Suitable for Panel mounting, or in any 2 5/8 inch gauge pod or pillar mounting system.

e-BOOST Boost Management

But it looks so ugly, lol



So it does all that from that little package? How do you program it? Do you have to take it to a sho and have it programed? Can you do it yourself?



They dont tell you anyu of that. Im sure there is a better boost controler on the market.

it is the easiest boost controller to program. i have a apexi top of the line boost contrller and then changed to Eboost and havent looked back. very easy to use and the manual is a good and easy read.



i would say if it your first time using it........... say u start in the morning at 9 am...... you will be a legend at tuning the controller by lunch time.

thats $800 AU , thats less than the "other " brands , and the programming is way simpler than the rest , for each setting ( settings include boost setpoints , waste gate opening pressure and sensativity) you have to increase from 0-99 until you get what you want , I had an HKS evc and never got to use it in auto . mode with the fuzzy logic , it was just too damn hard to "teach" the controller the turbos boost curve , especially on the roads. Follow sharky's link and check out the AUTOSPEED evaluation of the controller .

I agree I dont like the colour , I plan to black out everything when I get it..........., If yuh goin an modify , then MODIFY !!!!!.
