since my missus became a full time mummy.  money is a bit short. especially for fuel.
 
is there a boost controller with many setting? im after one that turns boost off so i can use the car round town.
 
and are they easy to fit?

The boost controller is not going to save you fuel..its that dreaded right peddle that you will have to be easy with...:( not easy but may work

even if you switch to zero boost you can\'t set below what the actuator is set at.
You could probably save the money getting a cheap run about and only insuring you rx for 3000 miles or something.

If you have a single turbo, external wastegate and NO screamer pipe, you could always remove the wastegate spring! You\'ll get no boost whatsoever then! (But it won;t be switchable either)
