my mate has a 2002 Turbo Astra SRi.
he wants a boost controller that can change the boost level with each gear, i.e. 5 for 1st 10 for 2nd and 15 for 3/4/5
does anyone know who does these

I would think that the only way it could be done is with a sophisticated after market ECU (Autronic or Motec and possibly others) that allow for connection of wheel speed sensors.

I have an Apexi AVCR, im pretty sure you can set boost in gear.
Apparently the unit can learn gears based on rpm, throttle and speed sensor input.

so its a job for the pros to put in, bear in mind we are fairly technically minded

Witzl and i wired mine up
i mean, they give you the pins to tap into if its a jap ecu.
But you need:
-Ignition
-RPM
-TPS
-Speed signal
-Ground
-Ground

They aren't cheap though.
