AEM’s TRU-BOOST: Accurate, Simple, Easy.
A Boost-Gauge Style Boost Controller that combines simplicity,
style and function into one professional grade product. This is an
electronic boost controller that offers you the welcome simplicity
of a manual boost-controller with the added ease of controlling
your boost levels through an elegant in-cockpit gauge interface
from the drivers seat. There is no external interface required for
set up, and everything is included so its fully functional right
out of the box.
No gimmicks or special software programs are required as all
logic and electronics are self contained.
If you want more boost: press the button on the right of the gauge
face. If you want less boost: press the button on the left of the
gauge face. That simple, and IT WORKS great!
Includes everything you need; such as an on-board 29 PSIg
pressure sensor, and adds functionality that only an electronic
unit has like built in over-boost protection (with two timed
shutdown levels), a scramble boost setting, and a low-side output
for a dash warning light or signal to ECU.
Scramble Boost feature is a particularly perfect feature for the
BMW owner: Set your standard boost level for the daily drive and
the twisty roads to aid in traction, when you need it; have a
momentary higher max-boost setting for spanking the unsuspecting
Mustang, Supra, or 911 you next meet at the stop light, drag strip
or on the highway. A great feature!
AEM includes their own proprietary boost control solenoid, one
they are proud to say is the only one specifically manufactured
for automotive boost applications, which means it won’t corrode
and stick from exposure to rich fuel mixtures and other
environmentals car see. It is pressure tested to 100 psi and
includes -4 AN fittings to eliminate any chance of leaks.
Features include:
- No external interface required for programming
- Complete system includes harness, boost hose, on-board 29 PSIg
pressure sensor (external 75 PSIa optional), boost solenoid, gauge
display and all necessary fittings
- Quick connect technology eases the installation process

levels at 10% and 20% Overboost
- User configurable gauge includes 24 scalable LEDs, and
interchangeable bezel, pin guide and faceplate to customize look of

AEM offers a 75 PSIa boost sensor for
high boost / drag racing applications (sold separately).
VAC Tech Note
-Regardless of brand or type, a boost controller will only allow
you to raise boost above the installed wastegate spring pressure.
If you wish to lower boost level, you must run a lighter wastegate
actuator spring. If your having boost spike/creep cause by exhaust
related issues, no boost controller will fix this.
-Note that improper installation and/or adjustment of this product
can result in major engine/vehicle damage.
