e-Boost STREET Installation and Video!
The new e-Boost STREET is already making waves in the street performance market. To see just how easily the unit fits into a dashboard compartment and hooks up to a turbo we've installed one onto a Dodge Ram 2500 with the Cummins Turbo Diesel.
In tune Performance Monaro
In Tune Performance is renowned for building crazy street and strip cars with their flagship Monaro a personal best at the Hi-Tech Titles. Running a 2JZ with 30psi boost, the 'FIRED UP' Monaro blazed down the strip for a 7.39 @ 182.55mph quarter mile. With early passes like these, a 6 second pass is a definite possibility!
Beetlejuiced!
From the country that brought us this year's Eurovision winner, we have a unique and frighteningly quick Vee Dub. Built by M-Spec Motorsport, this lean, mean and air-cooled Beetle with Stian Larsen behind the wheel holds the Norwegian record with a 9.14 quarter mile.

e-Boost STREET hits the spot
Easy to install and simple to set up with its intuitive turn-and-push control button, the new e-Boost STREET is quickly gaining popularity among street tuners and performance workshops. With aggressive pricing and extensive advertising, e-Boost STREET is destined to be a top seller.
