Is This A Good Boost Controller?

[Tangles]

for the money Greddy Profec B spec-ii is the goods

chat to a sponsored seller and get a price.

otherwise any $200 2ndhand jap-name brand will do the job

Hi there ...

Thanks for all the hints and opinions ...

I've learned that:

1. The standard turbo might or might not fall apart over 11-12PSI
   
2. Dual solenoids are better?
   
3. The Profec IIB is best value for money
   
4. Any other 2nd hand controller might work as well
   
5. 
   

As much as I like the Blitz with the fancy boost graphics I placed an offer on the old school HKS EVC 4

I got it for a good price and if it's not working out for me I go for a newer unit ...

As for the standard turbo falling apart or not I posted these videos earlier:

The greddy might 'work' but they really are rubbish.

A turbotech will bring boost on harder and control it just as well when it gets there and they're $39 so I'd say that's ur best value for money.

I have a $40 Turbotech controller and it works fine, doesn't spike and holds fine.

Yep ... the ball/spring type seems to be doing it's job quite well.

(as opposed to a bleed valve)

But it has no gimmicks/toys like LOW/HIGH boost on command and you need an additional gauge to monitor boost levels.

I think it's the best bang for buck out there
