that would just act as a 2 step controler. looks like it would work well for that and the price doesn't seem bad.

a variable boost controler is nice too. you can often do things like ramp up the boost based on time or speed or gear. costs a lot more.

the statement about not wanting boost at part throttle is silly. you want the boost as soon as you can get it. you wont all the sudden get an uncontrolable amount of boost. it is throttle and load dependant and easy to control. a varialbe boost controler usualy has a "gain" setting where you can often get boost sooner than with a manual or a 2 step controler.
