Turbo timers and Boost Controllers? Turbo guys where you at?


Ive got a 95 mustang GT, that im installing an HP turbo kit on shortly im trying to get the turbo timer and boost contoller and other componets so i have everything i need for the install,is there any specific one we have to use for the mustangs or any universal timer and controller? What should i look for in buying them (brand,options,ect.)? 67mm turbo 10-14 psi.

Thanks
Doug

All of them are universal. I have TurboSmart's EBoost2 boost controller. Still have to get a turbo timer, but you really dont need it. Just have to wait about a minute or two before you shut down.

if you havnt placed your order with hp you need to seach and check out what is happening to their clients. guys have been thinking that it wouldnt happen to them and the are looking at both delays and kits that dont fit........please do the research on the turbo forums before you make any mistakes

Thanks for the heads up man actually i had a custom kit made where i can keep my a/c and power steering,i steered away from HP because there service was poor when i called to discuss some stuff and i thought the price was high even thou it was direct fit (suppose to be at least)so i got the kit the way i wanted it with a bigger turbo and upgraded BOV and waste gate and still saved some cashnot a lot but hey all the little helps lol

HP systems are horribly priced because they include a fuel pump, injectors and MAF. Not to mention the electric fan and relays. They also waaay over charge for their ceramic coating on all their plumbing. HP Performance are probably one of the last people i would consider for a turbo system. There are other people out there that use the same material and components (or better), and engineer kits that fit just as good, that sell for the HALF the price.
