Best Boost Controller Value

Just got these quotes, and seeing how they can all what I want 12psi boost, what is the best value? Is it the profec b? (not interested in the manual boost controller).

to the "search ****'s" I've seen comparo's but not something related to bang for the buck.

-blitz sequential boost controller i-d
your cost........$503.30

-a'pexi avc-r II digital boost controller
your cost........$460.00

-greddy profec 'a' (fuzzy logic)
your cost.........$451.50

-greddy profec 'b'
your cost..........$329.00

the profec b is by far the best
I am using a manual boost controller so I don't know first hand but if you had searched you would have seen that it's the most popular by far for the fd owners

I'm using the Blitz DSBC on the 1st turbo, and a manual on the 2nd. When I use only the blitz, it seems to overwhelm the controller... like it can't react fast enough. I got that one for $390 shipped from R-extreme

I am non-seq and running the Blitz SBC-iD and it rocks. Holds rock solid boost and has an awesome display, its expensive but I picked it up used so I got a great deal, about half price, keep your eyes out,

Yes the Blitz...SBC-ID! All the way!
Has a built in Boost gauge... Warning for overboost and limiter function.
So in other words... if you get more than
your set amount of boost lets say 14.5 then you can have it cut down on boost to a preset amount.

The Dual Selenoid design works really good. Gain control for overall turbo spool.
And looks to boot... how could you go wrong?

best value is making your own pill for around 5 bucks or getting the home depot valve for 10 bucks. Now that is a value!! If you want an EBC, i'd say the greddy B is the best.

i'm using profec B for my single turbo and it works like a charm. If you are not going to keep switching between various boost settings than go for the profec b, it's the easiest and simplest to use
