I was searching for a boost controller to get 12psi out of my T25 and was looking at the HKS acuator and found this, http://www.hopupracing.com/hksvbcvbocou.html. Its a manual boost controller that can be placed in the car or the engine bay. I was wondering if anyone had experience with it.. Im considering trying it out, for the price it isn't bad but thought to see if anyone else is running one.

I'm using the s13 HKS acuator which holds steady @14psi all the time - FWIW.

Wouldn't get it, because manual boost controllers will have boost creep and over boost. Without a good solenoid and limiters, you run risk of blowing engine and turbo.

Don't do it. I have one, I get crazy overboost and my turbo's just about dead now thanks to it.
