Default Anyone know where to get this great gadget!

It is a Weapon R boost manifold. You basically hook one end up to the central boost feed of your engine and then all other things that require a boost signal come off the nipples, thereby ensuring they all run off the same boost reading.

Anyone know where to get one or something similar? I know a few people have a device like this fitted.

It looks like it belongs in a reticulation system. Sure your not looking for a part for your Hydro

no... its so that you hook up one end to your manifold in the best spot to get the best reading.... then every other device from your wastegate/boost gauge/MAPsensor/Fuel regulator all take a feed off that one signal.

It basically ensures that every device is all doing its job based on one pressure reading of say 17psi. Instead of your Boost gauge showing 17.4, wastegate seeing 16.2, Map sensor seeing 17.9 etc.

Dunno if it might have trouble feeding all those devices from the one input.

The other devices might SUCK it dry.

I know i had problems when a certain workshop hooked my EBC into my restricted boost guage line.. and then tuned the car to that...

Thats why it has 2 inputs one at either end to increase the air going into it.
