Default What are you E01 settings for 6.5 psi?

Hello everyone... I had installed my fuel system and tuned a customers car to 6.5 psi... but trying to get this E01 setup on the street is a pain... I suspect the crappy single solenoid to be inadequate for trying to properly regulate such low boost within a couple tenths of a psi accuracy.

Manual mode is a complete disaster, I can get it to act perfectly with the exception of hardcore overboost during rapid on/off throttle situations such as if your letting off and on during wheel spin... this i cannot allow.

Auto mode I have played with for probably 20 min driving around but I dont have all the time in the world to play with this thing so I was wondering if any of you guys are running 6.5 psi and if so what are your settings?

I have tried it several different ways but it seems like I can only consistently get like 5.5-6 psi with it going up and down the whole time or I can get 7-7.5 psi... have trouble getting inbetween... personally not a fan of this boost controller!!! Dual Solenoid all the way!!!

Thanks,
Charles

When you start the Auto mode the AUTO light will blink until the boost is set, I also cannot get it to work for me, I tried for 6 psi and actually got the light to stop blinking but then the boost would go to 7+

These boost controllers were never designed to increase boost 1psi from base. Just not going to happen very accurately. I was able to get pretty close...but there was still a .5 PSI fluctuation in auto mode.

The main benifit of the e-01 is its intergration with the eManage...I wouldnt use any other boost controller with the eManage...it would be pointless.

so with the 11.7 or whatever psi tial wastegate spring...if i tune my car to 15 psi, auto mode should set easily?
