I got the sbc-id

the graph system really helps as a historial for the last 10 or 20 seconds or so is displayed.

fairly easy to use too

I got it from ebay

you can now get it used for fairly cheap about 200$ ish or new for 300ish. It's a great boost controller and used to cost 500$ 6 months ago, the suddent price drop is due to the new color version

you can also link it with a power meter they have but I never had it, just a gimmick I think

there are 4 presets you can do, to change between them will be like: push the knob once, turn knob to scroll between setting 1~4, push knob again to set and you're done.

compared with the greddy one, it's a lot smaller, fits perfectly fine like so:

I don't know about the others, but I had the greddy profec b and it blew on me. Plus, It was a pain in the *** to use.

ive heard nothing but praise over the avc-r. i was thinking of getting this but as you know, this is the most expensive of the group i think. one of our sponsors is running a special on it for 385. my friend runs a profec B and adjustin it is a pain. how thick is that blitz? it would match my dcII................

yeah i heard the same thing about the profec B...so i think i might go with the HKS EVC cuz one of my friends knows how to tune that really good..he has it on his Evo...

avcr will be hard to adjust according to people's feedback when I did my research

so far I haven;t heard anyoen complain about blitz or hks boost controller

what ever you decide on.... get one with dual solenoid

if you get the greddy e-01 you may want to also get greddy emanage ultimate for fuel control

the emanage ultimate is like 550 i think or so. check ebay. as for the avc-r, maybe structure (anthony) could chime in about it as IIRC, he runs one. the blitz would be my number two choice........

i got my avc-r brand new from ebay for $385

it has a lot of great features like boost by rpm, boost by gear. i just have it set to hit the booost i want and hold it steady.

i was looking at the profec's and it seems they have weaker solenoids, especially the older profec's.
