hey man. Umm i got no pic of my setup. i have a dual stage but only have it hooked up on one setting which i drive on all the time. On other cars i have seen the switches on the dash near the steering wheel there is an empty panel which was for the window dwel switch that was in the Vk's (i think). People also put em next to their handbrake lever. Remember but they are illegal so if your going to use one hide it as cops will problery pick up on it. just tuck it up on drivers side dash, just under there. Heaps of places, put it on the floor , wherever really. I'd be hidding the sucka if it was my car but.

Use a wagon satellite switch(left one) and then you have two spare stock looking switches, acetone cleans the writing of them and sweet as!!!!!!

how bout just driving around on one setting all the time as max desired boost dosn't come on until your giving it some. Dual stages and 4 stage boost controllers so wanky. I drive to work on 13 psi all day everyday. Car problery sees a max of 8 psi on most days as im not accelerating hard. Pointless in my opinion. Each to their own.

Correct and you can added a wratchet relay to one of the two spares and run you boost control, and no one will even know! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

maybe not the best place if u want it hidden but there is mine, its mad at night i flick it for the fun of it cause my interior glows red everywhere, pretty bright but doesnt distract me at all because it doesnt shine at me but again makes everything shine.. its mad just cruising rock up next to sumone, flick it and get 22 pounds, not that i ever need it or use it. a mate of mine has 3 switches in his ashtray.. he wanted them all hidden completely and never smokes, ashtray was very clean so put them in there, cops will never find them even posting it on here 99.99% wouldnt guess or even look in there, open it up.. flick ur switches close it again.. obviously u need decent wiring aswell if u were in need to take it out not to break the solder joins on the back.

Each to their own. i agree there plus you should have your engine tuned to the boost your running aswell if your gonna run for example 10psi then flick to 22psi ur gonna f uk things up why dont you just get it tuned for one set boost, never understood why people need to turn down the boost to be able to drive softer, just dont put your foot down

hey mate my boost switch is in the centre consol on the left hand side its very effective as if u get pulled up u can easily cover it and the actual controler is in the fuse panel in the engine bay.. stealthy as

Hide the switch but remember if a cop opens your bonnet and sees a turbosmart boost line for example (they stand out like dog balls) going to the turbocharger, its pretty obvious if he knows what he is looking for. Can't be helped but.
