[Diy_efi] DIY Electronic Boost Controller

[Barry]

I'm all ears here, Shannen - what do you have in mind?  I've become a bit 
of a nut on a smooth boost curve on the Sy, tried *many* different combos 
of WG, actuators, solenoids, external/internal, etc this past 
winter.  Latest iteration is a butterfly style 1 1/2" WG spigoted into the 
Mitsu turbine housing - should be up & running this weekend.  Backpressure 
is such a big problem w/ the flapper & poppet types, thought I'd give a 
pressure balanced unit a try.

Lotsa variables at work here, thought I'd keep the ECM out of things at 
first & just use the Deltagate actuator on the butterfly & see how it works.
