should i cop a boost controller next?

Alright i got my bov today. im thinking about getting a boost controller next before i get intake, probably apexi. This shop in brooklyn said they have a greddy 1 for $330. is that a good price. which one is better apexi or greddy. i wanted 2 stick with apexi cause i got apexi turbo timer and i want it 2 match plus i got apexi bov and i wanta get a power fc do u guys think i should get the boost controller next or hold off. i dunno i was thinking of just getting it instead of saving for rims and then this summer just get some radials for my stock rims. keep in mind i got all the reliability mods, and boost gauge.

Greddy's Profec B is the most popular and works well.

Other than intake, what else are you running?

Why would you want to use one brand when you can choose the very best parts from many manufacturers and have a better overall car.

I have the Blitz SBC-iD but many swear by the Profec B. Either way the Apex unit is probably the hardest of any to install and is the least reliable. And remember that it won't do anything for you powerwise unless you have fuel mods.
