Boost by Gear with Auto boost controller?
need some help. wanting to interface the boost controller with the PCM or find something that will allow controlling boost by gear.
is there some way to do a paddle shifter that could interface?
if I can ramp up the boost by gear, I'm sure the car would be much faster and hook better.
spring is coming FYI, car is a built 346, TTiX, 800 rwhp, RPM stg 5 a4 with a 3200 multi disk convertor
thanks for any advice!

This is way out of my league!
I've thought about a B@@ST controller for my ProCharger too - it's a thought and I like your idea just don't if it'll interface with the PCM!
But I am interested to see some responses
Thanks,Matt

What BC are you using? The Eboost2 is sayining it can do that. I thinks APEXI has one out you can do it with. ( boost by gear that is )

Boost by speed, picking up the speed from one of the front wheel sensors will probably be the easiest way to control boost and prevent overboosting from spinning.

some of the boost controllers can do it with a manual by using micro switches on the tranny, I've got an automatic.
looking to interface with the PCM or potentially boost by speed could work too. thanks for the help!
