alright found out what it is and what it does
Dual Stage Boost Controller
Part #: txs-BC-DSBC
Our Price: $225
Two preset boost levels allow you to switch from "street" to "race" boost with the flip of a switch from inside the cabin - even while under full boost.

Well before you start just "flipping the switch" you might want to make sure you know what boost levels they are set at

As long as it's below 50, your engine is probably still fine. I ran 51 once.... damn, that can **** **** up.

Um... Negative. There was a dude pushing 35 and POP. Stock internals... i safe boost is like 25psi... dangerous is anything above that.
50 is just.... loonacy.

And here I thought you understood me, Sebba... Man. I WAS JOKING
I turned my boost all the way up ONCE and tapped out my 30psi gauge on my evo3 big 16g. Not cool. I run 17 daily.

what other mods are in this car. I say leave the thing off until you find out more about this car. 25psi is WAY to high

AHHHHHHHHHHHHhhggggggggggggg. your 16G should e no higher than 23-24PSI IMO but you really need to find out if th car has a fuel pump and injectors before you run that high your gonna kill you motor real fast if you dont

Well you nee to tell us what is done to your car so we dont need to keep asking one at a time.... what else does it have done? so far id say you are safe to run the 25PSI setting as long as your running 93 octane or higher, BUT does it have a wideband o2? do you now what the AFR is tuned to. If not then your next mod needs to be that so you can make sure it is at a safe ratio
