What boost controller are you using????

I need one, I use to have a Profec B Spec I back in the day.I want something compact that is digital and can control the boost at a different level in each gear. Profec E-01 is too big for me, I think I'm gonna end up goin with the TurboSmart Eboost 1 or 2 but it cost$$$$

What are you running????

and how do you like it???

Apexi AVC-R. It's rockstar. You pay for the amount of rockstar it is, but it is rockstar. Oh, and it requires a small about of learning curve, but it's easy to understand if you read the book and play with it some. Oh, and it learns your gears too, so you can control boost by the gear.

I'm back at work in Antarctica for the season. If you need anything I am selling or a step-down harness please be patient as we do not get access to the internet often.

If you’re curious about the field camp I'm at this year Google "Pine Island Glacier" or check out the weather cams we have set up there (Cam A & Cam B). Yes, I know its nothing but snow and flat white, welcome to my world...

Not very. Took about an hour or two. But I'm good with wires and stuff. I think you tap like 5 wires off the ECU harness. And you need to mount the map sensor and solenoid valve of course.

I am also using the AEM tru boost. I love it. Install was easy. It may be a challenge at first when you want to set up pre-set A and pre-set B for boost because it works on duty cycle %.
