Boost "Valet Switch" question....

ok, I am thinking of making a valet switch with a 90° brass ball valve, some tubing, and other little nick nacks that go with it.. My question, is does anyone sell one already made up, or is it cheaper to go make my own?? I would like to be able to let the boost leak out, then close it up, and surprise some people, as well as not smoke at times, should I get stopped for sooting somewhere... I hope this makes sense.. I have heard of some people using valet switches, and was wondering if this was the same sort of principle....
