Hi fellas

Im in the market for the boost controller and would like to hear your thoughts.

What do you recknon is the one that stands out appart from apexi.I was having a look at Blitz SBC Spec S which is single solenoid boosting upto 1.2 bars. Seems very good, the down side is being a single solenoid.If you've got any suggestions please advise me of it

Thank you

I recommend the GReddy Profec B-Spec II.

The cheapest JDM EBC and it holds boost well. Comes with bells & whistles such as peak boost recording, gain settings, real-time boost reading (like a digital boost gauge).

However it is only single solenoid. Shouldn't be a problem unless you're going to be running huge PSI.

i run a Blitz SBC-iD, holds up to 2.5bar and it's dual solenoid.

So far have had no issues what-so-ever and it mounts very nicely in an R32 ashtray to keep prying eyes in the dark. Kind of nice that it has so many options and that you can pick them up used for about 300$

I bought it because everything in my car must be controllable from the interior and a manual boost controller doesnt offer that. It's a wonderful little toy purely because of that feature alone.

Don't know from experience, but I've heard good things about the dual solenoid version of the one you're talking about. Blitz SBC Spec R. Autobarn have them retailing for $799, and the Spec S for $599, but I know you can get the Spec R (dual) delivered for $500 if you do your research :)

    • It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.  
    • Careful with posts like that around here without the flame suit on @cobo_11! 😂😂 My 330i journal is on here too. That car was so good and super reliable. We still have a 130i in the family which is almost identical to the 330i and easier to find in manual. It has also been almost faultless over the 6 or so years in the family.  I used to want an M car a lot more than I do now but if I'm honest and without trying to sound like a wanker, I can get such good performance and handling out of my 335 without needing to worry about all the crap that goes along with M car ownership. I don't need to worry about my bearings or subframe issues or the cost of replacing brakes or suspension or whether it has been impeccably maintained. And I can leave it places and not get upset when it's always filthy.
    • A pretty cool little feature discovered while restoring my seats.     
    • Great write ups / details / photos. I'm sort of on the road to E90 ownership (325i or 330i), haven't hit the fork in the road yet "Yes" | "No", and some of the issues you've faced have me nervous for the age these are getting to nowadays (that wiring, jesus), but I'm guessing the pro's of ownership are still outweighing the con's? Of course, if the bloody tattslotto ROI actually went my way...E90 M3. And I'd have the cash to do all the extra lovely maintenance THOSE require. 😄
    • They sure do, great for when you need to chuck a sickie 😅   You should definitely give the beast a squirt on the track, great to enjoy the car
