A panel for a dual-stage manual boost controller that they sell.

Look up AfterBurner. That's the two stage boost regulator. Run around town with the boost turned down for better gas mileage or whatever, flip the switch and you got maximum boost for maximum fun.

Examples:
The first and most obvious is valet or guest driver control set a low boost for guest drivers. I would hide the switch and regulators in the glove box though.

With my current setup it is difficult to get a maximum speed run thru first. As boost comes on it spins the rears like crazy. A fun way to deal with all that power would be to set one regulator so the boost just barely spins the rears in first, then set the second regulator for max boost. Set up the switch so that it activates the horn button so when pushed instead of honking the horn it switches to the second regulator. Start your run in first, then hit the horn button with your left thumb to finish the run on the higher boost setting thru the rest of the gears.

I've also thought a similar low-hi setting would be good for managing power on the track. Set the lower boost for more throttle control in the apex of corners, then hit the horn button for higher boost to exit and take it down the straight.

Sounds like fun to me.

D'OH!!! I just bought the vacuum kit and solid motor mounts 2 months ago.

Nice pieces, by the way...

Not bad. . . It's still not going to make me run right out and blow $600 on an exhaust though. If it was something I'd been saving for anyway I'd definately avail myself of the special, but all that stuff is still pretty expensive - especially given this time of year when people don't have $$$.

No matter how much I look at those headlight ducts, I think they look like ***.

Who wants a LR headlight duct...painted guards red. Fitment is sketchy and I think Im close to never installing it again. (ran around with it on for a few days, then swapped back to stock)

I bought a few minor bits for the up-coming engine refresh. Nothing exotic. Running Stock class is a good thing - it keeps temptation in check!
