34GeeTeeTee Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 This is pretty well covered all over SAU mate, have a search and you shall find...

That's right thats why I said generally, I have two EVCs now ( 4 & 5 ) and never had an issue, but both came up at good prices when I needed something, so either I've had a good run or your one had an issue, who knows but I know I'd wouldn't ever go the e boost, I spent hours setting up and CRD tried and no matter what we did it wouldn't catch how quick the 32 came on boost, fitted the EVC and with no setting it up had no more problems, been in car for 8-9 years so far Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/427056-ebc/#findComment-6892206 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattr32gtr28 Posted June 16, 2013 Author Share Posted June 16, 2013 ive noticed alot of people running greddy profec ebc's are they way to go, hold boost like they should?

Dose Pipe Sutututu Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 eBoost = great, but overpriced considering it's is just using a MAC valve Profec = great, decent is price, uses the same MAC valve as most controllers EVC = awesome, stepper motor holds boost well Blitz Dual Spec-R = awesome, dual solenoid holds boost so flat you could put a ruler on it Turbosmart Dual stage = junk, awesome spike Turbosmart Single stage = junk, awesome spike , Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/427056-ebc/#findComment-6893160 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dose Pipe Sutututu Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 ^ true story, my 180 came with one, first mod was to remove it and sell it. Then my current shitbox came with one, removed it the first day I got the car, and sold it on eBay. Biggest croc of shit on the planet, essentially it's just a pos bleed valve with a solenoid to enable the bleed or not.. total shit, however their external gates are good. They should stop making boost controllers LOL Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/427056-ebc/#findComment-6893203 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattr32gtr28 Posted June 17, 2013 Author Share Posted June 17, 2013 thanks for your advise guys appreciate it. I'm thinking i might go with the Greddy ebc that option seems good value for cost. I have researched before but it is easier to ask the question and get direct answers instead of sifting through junk on the net. thanks for the help matt.
