Electronic boost controller questions

im looking to purchase a electronic boost controller soon. Originally i was gonna go with a Greddy Profec B Spec 2, but now im having second thoughts. I was also looking at the Profec E-01 and the HKS Evc Kpa Ver.2. What ebc's are good for tops 500$? Thanks

I am currently using the Greddy Spec-2 with absolutely no problems. It performs great. Another one you might want to consider if your looking in the 500 range is the Apexi AVC-R. Good luck.

Selling this one (See Link Below). One of the easiest EBC's to use on the market and works great. There are a lot of mixed reviews on EBC's and someone will always say that this one works the best and vice versa. From personal experience I can tell you that the APEXi AVC-R is a great boost controller and holds boost very well, your just always going to get boost tapper on the factory turbo.

I've used the old school profec B and the newer type S, both worked well for me, aside from the old one having limited capacity. I currently use an HKS EVC of some variety, new model (less than a year old), and that works very well also. I think this one normally goes for over 500, but the original owner scored a deal at 460 IIRC.
