Hey Everyone,
As you can probably tell I am new to the site and a new 87T owner. I have been reading on here for the past few days and I am now ready to buy and install a manual boost controller, or I read somewhere to just buy some sort of valve for like $10 bucks.
I perfer to buy a reputable manual boost controller but I can't find out where and which one to buy. So what is the best one for the money and whats the website I go to to buy it?
Thanks alot,
PS. I already have the K&N air filtercharger and a custom exhuast put on the car from the previous owner. -
Look on E-bay. They have a few to choose from on there........98 Maxima SE 5-speed. Daily

Thanks, which one would you recommend and/or do you use? -
I use this one http://boostcontroller.com/index.php?it … tegory%3D5
Not cheap though. It looks like the prices have gone up.I bought mine for $80 two years ago.Originally posted by michaelp -
I recommend Hallman myself.Chicks dig me, rust fears me. -
yeah either make your own for like 10 bucks, or do an EBC.

I'd prolly buy that just to avoid a trip to the hardware store.Rick88ss wrote: I have one I can sell you that looks just like this one:

Is a MBC just that simple? My other question is I don't have a boost gauge, I would like to only run upto 11lbs of boost(all stock motor/turbo) (Air filtercharger and exhaust already done) Without having a boost gauge is there anyway I can adjust this MBC to run 11psi?
PM me with you ph# and I will call you.
Thanks -
Yeah thats what I thought...... well I am pretty sure I can install the boost controller, but not really sure how to install the boost gauge?
Anybody got pics and step by step on here?
Thanks, -
All you need is a boost/vacuum reference source behind the throttle body, ign on wire for illumination, and a place to mount the gauge. Easier than installing a stereo. I don't know about pics but you probably won't need any.
The source on my 85t:

I want to say thanks to everyone on here. You all have been so helpful.
thanks for your nice pic, is it the same on my 87T? -
You have the 87T, go out and look.shamos wrote: I want to say thanks to everyone on here. You all have been so helpful.

You don't even need any power to the gauge. That is just light it up. The needle will move with just the vacuum line coming from the intake manifold. You can even go to Harbor freight and get boost gauges now, or autozone, pepboys, checker, advance. Hell, Walmart might even sell them now.
Don't forget about your pop off valve too.85 Z31 6.0 LSX turbo 766whp/792wtq

I was considering a hallman, but heard simply adding it fully open adds 2 psi. My car is bone stock turbo and don't plan on modifying much at this point.
