I’m defiantly gonna look more under the hood at room before I decide on a location, I just really don’t want to clutter the engine and have to remove a bunch of piping and stuff just to access certain things. The VGT seems awesome but man are they expensive!
What did you do for fuel??

pretty simple to use a VVV to control one... I would go a bit more exotic and toss in a DRV101 IC

How DOC is controlling his is most likely different as there are many ways to do it.

I'm planning on doing the same thing! Awesome write up and lots of good ideas. Love when you can make power without emptying pockets entirely. I too am interested in the controller you used.
