(manual) Boost Controllers?

Has anyone had any experience with Hallman's boost controllers? If anyone has any information about any of the Hallman's controllers and the cockpit cable, would greatly appreciate hearing about it. Also if anyone has any experience with other manual boost controllers would like to hear about it. Trying to decide which to get. I want to get a manual but thinking about electronic.

both are bad.. just get an Cobb ap and go get tuned..

while tuning the boost is able to be changed..

its alot safer changing boost though the ECU of the car..

Alright thanks. I just picked up an AP v2, how do to increase the boost on it? I have already married it to my 07 STI and loaded the proper map. Is there another screen that allows you to control the boost levels?

nope APs are set

you need to get a person with a pro tuner


when you add more boost you need to add more fuel. or else you run lean and EGTs go through the roof. it will be super fast for a few pulls

then it wont pull anymore


also you have to pull timing when you start to boost it up mroe so you cant just simply add boost with out blowing it
