bootmod3 - Boost Reduction by Gear

Hey guys, been working on a new feature for the Map Config screen. Many of you going racing can attest to having traction issues especially in lower gears. Whether its about cutting better 60' at the 1/4 mile or in say a 2nd gear roll given how torque ramps in quickly on these cars. Great tires and suspension setup go a long way but in many cases this still isn't enough.

For those traction limited in some gears or just looking to lower boost by using this as a basic boost tuner you'll be able to adjust it

Let us know if any questions here or through our facebook group:

Awesome!!!! I was just thinking how amazing it would be to have this feature and here you guys delivering it.

Quick question on the percentage slider, if we go say 100 percent reduction does that mean stock boost levels or does that mean wastegates stay open and zero boost pressure(if that’s even possible?)

I know 0% is stock boost levels; so assuming at 100% reduction it would keep the wastegates open not allowing to build boost.

I think in this instance, they are setting the amount of bar to be adjustable (if you don't work in psi)

Is this boost reduction across all modes or can it be assigned to certain modes?
