hi mate,

Just get onto ebay.com.au and find yourself a TEE .

They are pretty cheap and the ones in the link work very well !!

They also have heaps of boost gauges on ebay for pretty cheap, from no name brands to hks etc.

I was under the impression that in-cabin boost controllers are illegal ? But , who knows what is and what isnt illegal these days, i think it just depends on the police man.

Anyways, normally i just set the boost and forget about it, your BEST boost controller is your right foot.

But they all do basically the same thing, its just a matter of finding someone with tiny hands to get to all the lines / nipples...

good luck with which ever you choose to get, but have a read of the forum link that the guy posted in my reply.

You can't wind down boost lower than stock as the wastegate actuator controls this.

The boost controllers leak air from the wastegate pressure lines to 'fool' the wastegate into believing only a certain amount of pressure is being generated by the turbos.


I will have a GFB bleed valve for sale in 5-6 weeks if your interested.
Will probably let it go for around $50...
