You mean low and high boost option? Most electronic boost controlers offer low and high. Hit a button and you have high boost. Hit it again and you're back to low. You dial in the low and high settings and save 'em.
I have the Profec B SpecII which has more features than low and high.

Best to get your swap running or running right then start turning up the wick.

Switch off, stock boost, switch on, whatever you set that MBC to.
...and all for under $100

lol. It's not like nitrus where you hit a button and there's instant power. You could drive around all day long with a boost controler set to 20psi and there would be no difference from stock except when you stand on it...

Wade's right... These things aren't hard to keep moderate. Stock boost will get you a ticket just as easily as 20psi, and for fuel consumption... If you are driving around day-to-day and accidentally hitting full boost on a modded engine, you got something wrong with your leg...

...from my time behind the wheel, you know damn well when you're coming up on boost. You feel it, you know it, you see the gas gauge dip down, and this was only 12psi (on a 62-trim mind you).

You're right foot will keep you out of a ticket and lower fuel consumption. You can have vacuum and still get a ticket.
