run two different maps at the flick of a switch say. For example during the day you use low boost for pottering around town and then for example you can switch to high boost if say on a private road the need takes you to hand someones ass to them.
Is there anything that does this or not?
Thankyou kindly x

your on about an adjustable boost valve
switching maps? look at simtek or Hydra engine management.
simtek will do 2, hydra will do 3 maybe 4

i think more switching maps from high boost to low boost maps is what i am after.

Think its 2 different maps on the same ecu that you can change from one to the other.
Can you run both or would it defeat the object?

switchable maps and a boost controller is possible yeah
im running an apexi PFC, same as AK and Corsash
theres an option to control boost with them but iv gone for an Apexi AVCR boost controller (gear controlled boost, self learning ecu, scramble function) this is spliced into the ecu so u can use the scramble to adjust how much boost you want for say...entry to a m-way off a slip road etc
a map will be set up with like a limit to boost, or a set boost figure, so if you have 2 you can choose which 1 one you want, same as if you were running 2 different fuels ie 100% vpower or 20% methanol/E85 & 80% v-power

So with one of them wrighty can you change it, say if your sat at lights and you wanna embarress someone for example without sounding chavy. then just change it back to what you had set?

im gonna say boost controller mate, and an Apexi AVCR at that, simply as there the best on the market
due to exchange rates and apexi putting the price up, your looking at paying £325+ for one at the minute brand new in either silver or black, but the black tend to go for a bit more!
