INNOVATIVE TURBO SYSTEMS PROVIDES THE ULTIMATE IN TURBO BOOST CONTROL

Innovative Turbo Systems introduces a system for controlling turbocharger boost for performance street, road race and drag race applications: the new and improved Multi Stage Boost Controller (MSBC-1) and its sister product, the brand-new MiniGate. The MSBC-1 electronically controls the wastegate, so you can produce repeatable controlled boost with a variety of turbo systems and in a variety of applications.

The Multi Stage Boost Controller features brand-new TURBO12G software with a timer function, so you can control when and how much boost comes on over time, as well as according to which gear you're in and your engine rpm. In all, the MSBC-1 provides six stages of boost control, including a launch stage for drag racing and one stage for each of five gears. You can choose from 17 different ramp settings within each of the six stages, and you can program from 0 up to 60 pounds of boost during each stage in 1-psi increments. It even compensates automatically for changes in air density. The MSBC-1's display shows manifold pressure during boost control. Plus, there are two analog data recorder outputs: actual boost level and target boost level. In addition, a self-test makes it easy to figure out if everything has been installed and programmed properly. The self-test checks the display, MAP sensor, solenoids and data logger output. If there's a problem, error codes indicate the trouble areas. For more information, contact Innovative Turbo Systems, Dept. DRO, 845 Easy St. #102, Simi Valley, CA 93065, 805-526-5400, or visit www.innovativeturbo.com.
