Hi,
I'm wanting to make a mechanical bleed vavle style boost controller, like a DNA, Turbosmart, surely you can get somethin like this from Enzed, or pirtek, has anyone done this, or point me in the right direction?or if this has been discussed before
Thanks
Roy

Making 1 may be difficult because of durrability issues. also It may be cost effective to bargain down sum over the holi day period
but hey if u make 1 would be very interesting

Yes you can, is so easy....you only need a normaly closed electrovalve 12 dc volts and the most important..... 2 "flow regulators" or "volume regulators" i dont sure the name in english (is a little ultra precice valve utilized to control the flow of compresed air an industrial neumatic systems), you find this parts in the industrial electrocontrolers stores.., here (in venezuela) are so cheap than the mechanical boost controlers all parts about 60 US$ (hoses, conections, electrovalve and 2 flow regulators )... and works so good
PD:sorry for my poor english..

Last one I did I bought a needle valve from Pirtek ($15 or something?), and made a restrictor. I also bought some fuel hose and clips. A few minutes later, home made boost controller
