This impeller is directly linked to the compressor wheel, which then sucks in and compresses fresh air into boost pressure before sending it to your intake manifold.

One of the more effective and straightforward options is to install one of our manual boost controllers. The main objective of these controllers is to delay the actuation of the wastegate by altering the boost signal pressure. The controller uses an adjustable valve that bleeds off pressure running to the wastegate actuator and delays the valve from opening. Opening the wastegate later keeps your vehicle pushing more charged air to the engine for longer without jeopardizing the turbo’s integrity. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wp-block-image\"\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"\u003e\u003cimg data-recalc-dims=\"1\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1038px) 100vw, 1038px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/NT6_5054.jpg?w=1500\u0026amp;ssl=1 1500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/NT6_5054.jpg?resize=600%2C431\u0026amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/NT6_5054.jpg?resize=150%2C108\u0026amp;ssl=1 150w\" class=\"wp-image-23157\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/NT6_5054.jpg?resize=1038%2C746\u0026amp;ssl=1\" height=\"746\" width=\"1038\" loading=\"lazy\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/NT6_5054.jpg?fit=600%2C431\u0026amp;ssl=1\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/NT6_5054.jpg?fit=600%2C431\u0026amp;ssl=1\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-title=\"NT6_5054\" data-image-meta='{\"aperture\":\"5.6\",\"credit\":\"\",\"camera\":\"Canon EOS R6\",\"caption\":\"\",\"created_timestamp\":\"1653315759\",\"copyright\":\"\",\"focal_length\":\"29\",\"iso\":\"1250\",\"shutter_speed\":\"0.003125\",\"title\":\"\",\"orientation\":\"0\"}' data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-orig-size=\"1500,1078\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/NT6_5054.jpg?fit=1500%2C1078\u0026amp;ssl=1\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/2022\/05\/manual-boost-controller-operation-abt\/nt6_5054\/\" data-attachment-id=\"23157\"\u003e\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile taking control of your turbo’s wastegate has plenty of advantages, it’s important to note the limitations of these controllers. For starters, these will aid in your turbo’s performance, but they’re not a magic solution for mind-bending power figures. That level of sorcery is reserved for bigger turbos and performance tunes. Manual boost controllers can only increase your system’s boost pressures as well, so those looking to restrict boost to better suit your project will have to seek alternate solutions. Finally, two-port manual boost controllers delay your wastegate actuation, but they can’t entirely prevent the gradual spring compression that tapers off boost pressure. Since this style of boost controller only adjusts the reference pressure to the spring, the overall operation is the same, just delayed. Still, these limitations are greatly outweighed by the benefits of fine-tuning your forced induction system, especially with our new adjustable manual boost controller design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur boost controllers are built with high pressure in mind to ensure that your reign over the turbo’s boost is long-lived. Clad in a sleek black or gorgeous gold anodized 6061 aluminum shell, these controllers fit in with any build’s specs or color schemes. We complimented the durable carapace with even tougher internals. CNC-machined from stainless steel, the inner workings of this boost controller stand up to both the elements and the pressures constantly running through them. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wp-block-image\"\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"\u003e\u003cimg sizes=\"(max-width: 1038px) 100vw, 1038px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/NT6_5072.jpg?w=1500\u0026amp;ssl=1 1500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/NT6_5072.jpg?resize=600%2C425\u0026amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/NT6_5072.jpg?resize=150%2C106\u0026amp;ssl=1 150w\" class=\"wp-image-23156\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/NT6_5072.jpg?resize=1038%2C735\u0026amp;ssl=1\" height=\"576\" width=\"814\" loading=\"lazy\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/NT6_5072.jpg?fit=600%2C425\u0026amp;ssl=1\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/NT6_5072.jpg?fit=600%2C425\u0026amp;ssl=1\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-title=\"NT6_5072\" data-image-meta='{\"aperture\":\"8\",\"credit\":\"\",\"camera\":\"Canon EOS R6\",\"caption\":\"\",\"created_timestamp\":\"1653315987\",\"copyright\":\"\",\"focal_length\":\"105\",\"iso\":\"640\",\"shutter_speed\":\"0.016666666666667\",\"title\":\"\",\"orientation\":\"0\"}' data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-orig-size=\"1500,1062\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/NT6_5072.jpg?fit=1500%2C1062\u0026amp;ssl=1\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/2022\/05\/manual-boost-controller-operation-abt\/nt6_5072\/\" data-attachment-id=\"23156\"\u003e\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo top things off, literally, we included a ball and dimple adjustment knob into our design, allowing for precise and repeatable adjustments to your system. We also sealed things up with a set of nitrile O-rings and tough stainless steel fittings to complete the secure connection through the system. Finally, our controllers are accompanied by a universal mounting bracket to make boost adjustments accessible anywhere in the engine bay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo show the true definition of our boost controller’s adjustability, we set up a simple comparison test between our design and one of the generic competitor units. Both boost controllers were loaded with 60PSI, and we recorded the change in pressure at every adjustment click on each controller’s outlet. We determined from this test that our controller contained up to 41 unique adjustment points, ideal for fine-tuning your turbo setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wp-block-image\"\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"\u003e\u003cimg sizes=\"(max-width: 1038px) 100vw, 1038px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Adjustment-Test.png?w=1071\u0026amp;ssl=1 1071w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Adjustment-Test.png?resize=600%2C388\u0026amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Adjustment-Test.png?resize=150%2C97\u0026amp;ssl=1 150w\" class=\"wp-image-23174\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Adjustment-Test.png?resize=1038%2C672\u0026amp;ssl=1\" height=\"527\" width=\"814\" loading=\"lazy\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Adjustment-Test.png?fit=600%2C388\u0026amp;ssl=1\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Adjustment-Test.png?fit=600%2C388\u0026amp;ssl=1\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-title=\"Adjustment-Test\" data-image-meta='{\"aperture\":\"0\",\"credit\":\"\",\"camera\":\"\",\"caption\":\"\",\"created_timestamp\":\"0\",\"copyright\":\"\",\"focal_length\":\"0\",\"iso\":\"0\",\"shutter_speed\":\"0\",\"title\":\"\",\"orientation\":\"0\"}' data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-orig-size=\"1071,693\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Adjustment-Test.png?fit=1071%2C693\u0026amp;ssl=1\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.mishimoto.com\/engineering\/2022\/05\/manual-boost-controller-operation-abt\/adjustment-test\/\" data-attachment-id=\"23174\"\u003e\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurbos quickly took over the minds of us enthusiasts, but boost control can now go two ways.
