Product Name: Dual Stage
Product Description: Dual stage boost controller
Product Number: TS-0105-1001/TS-0105-1002

ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
Thank you for purchasing your new DSBC. This new model now has some great new features. These include:

• 2 ramp rates of boost to give you the option of a fast rise in boost or a slightly tame rise for more sensitive setups.

• A wider boost adjustment range for wastegates with low spring base pressures.

IMPORTANT NOTES ON YOUR BOOST CONTROLLER

• Use only silicone hose that is the correct size and pressure rating for your application when fitting your boost controller – other
hoses will be effected by heat and will eventually crack or split which could cause excessive boost pressure and engine damage

• Ensure that all plumbing is secured with clamps

• Your boost controller should be mounted at least 100mm from any heat source

• A Turbosmart Fuel Cut Defender may need to be used in conjunction with your boost controller – refer to www.turbosmart.com.au

• The boost dials have a left handed thread, be sure not to over tighten as this will damage the boost controller

RECOMMENDATIONS

• Turbosmart recommends that the Air Fuel ratio is checked once boost pressure is set

• Turbosmart recommends that boost pressure is set using a Dynamometer and not on the street

• Turbosmart recommends that a accurate boost gauge be permanently fitted to the vehicle

• Turbosmart recommends that your boost controller is fitted and adjusted by an appropriately qualified technician
