So, ran across this:
www.a1customs (add in .com if you dare) /dash_mounted_turbo_boost_control_gm_diesel.htm
I'm pretty sure this guy has been "debunked" a several times and the web site hurts my eyes, but:
1. Is there any truth to the concept? As in, adjustable boost levels with a rheostat?
Biggest question:
2. If so, how is it done? I see what looks like a MAP sensor plug in the harness, is he just fooling the signal to the PCM with a variable resistor?
3. If it can be done, can it be done on the OBDII trucks?
4. Doesn't the OBDII system do this sort of thing already? (ie: dial boost up and down on programming)
5. What's the negative aspects of this method (if it works)?
Let's not get into a discussion on the seller, there's no way I'd spend 350 bucks for it and (like I've said) I'm pretty sure the guy has been "reamed" a couple times.
No, I don't have any "ties" to the guy either.
I would just like to explore the proof of concept and implementation of said concept.
Hot link edited for good of the TTS 6.5 family it may not be PC to say so, this vendor puts the TARD in RETARD
