Opinions on Blitz SBC-ID and Power Meter

I was wondering if anyone currently uses the SBC-ID and Power Meter? How is it? Is it worth purchasing? I am currently looking into purchasing these both but would like some kind of feedback on peeps that have these products. Thanks.

I have the old 1st generation Rev-Speed Meter from Apexi - I've been really happy with it for running tests. It's really neat and does lots of stuff.

I'm planning on upgrading to the new blue-screen Power Meter when the MPH version comes out - that sucker is NUTS. Especially with the G-force meter - you can log lateral G-forces!

I have the AVCR and works great for drag racing but I have a problem with it from roll

if I lauch in from a stop and run all the gears hard it follows the boost I want.

but if im on the highway and get on it from a roll like in 2 or 3 I get over boost spikes
no matter how I adjust it.

anyway I will keep it for the drag racin.

I have been thinking of switching to the Blitz ID becuase I think the dual solinode will keep the boost more undercontrol


with the Blitz ID can you set how hard or long it keep the gate closed after a shift? like the avcr does.

It takes a little bit of tuning to get those two to work well, but I also love them. And Alf is right, you get some wheel spin, or even a chirp, and it ruins your peak reading. But the boost controller is amazing, no complaints.
