Ok guys im going to setup a poll on Which Boost Controller you all think I should buy and why.

Here are the Boost controllersIm looking at.

Turbosmart e-Boost2
or
HKS EVC

If anyone thinks I should go with a different brand please say so.

Thanks Jonathan

 

Aem ?

 

My tuner said not to go with that one.

 

LOLOLOL!!! why not ?

 

To be honest I forgot why he told me not to go with that one LOL.

 

the AEM truboost? I've only heard good things about it...

 

not to hijack the thread, but im looking into a boost controller too, never had a boosted car before this. but i let my girlfriend drive my X sometimes whenever im at home in houston and the power of the X scares her most of the time and i dont feel comfortable with her driving when not feeling comfortable. so with a boost controller can i turn the boost way down to where the car isnt too fast?

 

i have the hks evc 6, good stuff. kinda pricey though.

 

Hallman MBC or as shark said you cant go wrong with AEM

 

I thought the AEM you couldn't control boost directly only duty cycle im looking into a boost controler of some sort also. I was thinking about the GS 3 port, but dont have a tuner near me and it said it needed to be tuned after install so I dont know.

 

good thread, interested as well as im new to having a boosted car

I'm a big fan of manual boost controllers though.

 

Removed.

 

how's the grimmspeed work? is it easy to install?

 

Not sure about the way this would work on an X, but I went with a GM 3 port solenoid and self tuned with ECUFlash, install took about 30 minutes, tuning maybe 2 hours total. The reason I like it is you have absolute control over how much boost at what RPM.
