you can just connect the switch to Rixster Boost gauge or the upcoming BMS gauge , than you can switch on the fly in the cabin...

I have this map switch in my glove compartment where the middle is the pedal map, the black side is map 3, and the red side is map 7.

thank you. thanks, was looking for some empirical testing.

are you using the JB3 or another model?
what version (1.22 or earlier)?
what map do you use (or what psi)?

For the original poster, understand there are two people that have pushed their cars extraordinarily hard and that is Shiv and Terry. Neither have had an issue. Shiv is track event running meth and simulating catastrophic failure. We don't know the limits, but we do know these engines are strong to say the least. People who think we are at the limits are basing their thoughts on zero facts. Just know that.

the time for worrying is when I start seeing others blow sht up and so far I've only seen that on an occasion where ridiculous boost was Being made (20+ psi) and the motor was fine, only a turbo blew
