Turbo builds boost...at about 3 PSI it creeps open...4 PSI a little more...5 PSI even more.....6 PSI fully open.........The turbo is trying to build more boost quickly, but the WG can not stay shut....therefore, you want better boost response so you change the spring in the WG........same scenario with say an 8 PSI spring.....begins to open at 4 PSI.....fully by 8.....Chasing your tail.
The boost controller diverts the pressure from the WG to keep it closed as long as possible thus improving boost response because now the WG is staying fully shut to 6 or 8 PSI then flying open.
Hook me up with some rep points if this made sense and helped you.
Someone left me EVEN rep...........
Even though......they said it helped them

Manual or electronic.....a good bet because it helps spool times decrease, keeps boost presssures more stable, and allows one to exceed boost levels higher than their WG spring setting.

dont manual boost controlers take a lot of like guess and check tunning?
ALL BOOST CONTROLLERS DO.
There are few "smart" boost controllers out there. The Blitz SBC-ID is one where you can enter the amount of boost you want, and it will calculate how much gain is needed for that boost level.

would it be near pointless to put a T3/T04E in a stock D17 if you dont plan on really building up the motor?
