I had the EVC VI and was very happy with it, was pricey but worth every penny.

i think if you dont want to run other then pump gas , then the factory set up is the best.
So i think its a waste of money in that situation.
If you need a higher boost because you run different turbo or race gas etc, then the MBC with a boost gauge is the best. /i prefer halmann pro RX/

The X has a better oem boost controlling system the the previous evos. Just need a new wastegate actuator.

Another vote here for the GM 3-port (PnP harnesses now available!) and tune.

The stock ECU can control boost very well, no need for a standalone boost controller, just extra spent $$$.

Where is the PnP harness available at?
