I was thinkng of adding the prodrive boost controler since I heard it plugs and play with the lgt moto. But was it that hard to dial in. Will it be not as affective since I have auto?

Car Info: vf-34'd ewg'd GDA AMS tuned!
the prodrive isn't extremly hard to dial in.it's just very sensitive to even a small amount of change.here's an exa. with the cobb off ots vf-34 map w/ stock bcs.the wgdc are in the 90's down low in the rpm range pre-spool.with the prodrive i took the wgdc down to 30% & slowing added to the amount ending up @ around 40%.
as far as chris' preference in bcs solenoid's i wouldn't have an aanswer for ya.
i went w/ the prodrive ,mainly because of the ease of install & per cobb's recommendation.
just remember this the routing for the hoses' differ from an iwg vs. ewg.
i'll try to dig up the diagram,i got it somewhere.

Yah, but the Prodrive's are $100 while the Grainger and GM are closer to $30. That's no small chunk o' change. The install is easy, it's figuring out WHAT to install that's the hard part. I'd hate to get there with a Grainger EBCS and find out that he hates them and be screwed.
BTW: Are you in HI and how do you like your EWG? I'd like to ride in one before I take the plunge.

Car Info: vf-34'd ewg'd GDA AMS tuned!
i'm on the big island, & i love my ewg setup!the vf-34 just wants to boost!
welded the iwg flapper closed,so far no leaks.
running a slowboy ext. gated up-pipe w/ tial 38.(jet-hot coated 2000)
the install itsn't to bad,just bolting up the ewg is a pain.
overall an easy install,the wg my be a little loud for some.
but then again i do have a blitz nur-spec exhaust so it doesn't bother me.

I need everyone to start sending in deposits if they are serious. I have not yet booked a plane ticket. That weekend we were talking about really won’t work anymore. It is too close to the date to book tickets, and I still don’t have any deposits.
Once we get some in. I will look at what the next date we can do this on will be.
Thanks
