the boost controller isn't powerful enough to do this unless you are externally gated. It will open the wastegate to the turbo, but the turbo won't care, it will spool up anyways. All this will do is increase spoolup time by a few hundred RPM. I went this route and regret it to this day---get an MBC and never look back. Turbosmart makes a really nice one if you must have dual stage.

As for turbo timers, get the APEX'i one, because it ROCKS! Its 1/4 the size of the greddy (you'll thank me later when your dash looks like friggin star wars) and has 3 times the functions. You can get accurate (as accurate as you're going to get at least) 02 readings with it, so you avoid making an 02 voltage gauge, and it gives you batt voltage as well--very handy for stereo people

*EDIT* I know many disagree with me, but to be honest, besides their pretty guages, I have been very un-satisfied with greddy products, and their guauges gave me a headache for a while as well...

their boost controller is a POS...its fragile as hell, stick with a crushed 1g
