What do you think, or know about....

As you may or may not know, I have been in the market for a boost controller. I have been getting wonderful feed back from all of you and I appreciate all your help. I have decide to go with a electronic boost controller since the manual set-up I would go with would cost almost the same ammount.
Anywho, my question is if anyone has ever seen, used, or heard feedback on this boost controller. It looks and sounds like a nice setup, but I was trying to get some information from someone who may have some experience with the unit.

Thanks a lot AGAIN for all of your help!

Blitz EBC's are very nice, however also very costly. You can get 2 GReddy EBC's for the price of one Blitz.

Wow. For a second I thought it had a touch-screen. That is a nice BC, but also a nice price.

I'd sooner by a cheap effective Profec B and keep the extra $500 I worked hard for in my bank account. Or use it to buy some other goodies

If you don't have any other gauges, (temp, pressure, boost) then you should think about this controller. All you need to buy is the sensers and you can kook them in and read them off that nice multi color display, in any kind of format you whant.
It also is a power meter.
It has some logging capability.

The price might seem high for just a boost controller, but if you need all the other things that it does, it would be werth the money.

Keep in mind that all these things could be hidden away in the din pocket. Try to do that with all your gauges, a power meter, and a boost controller.


Give this a read and I think you will see that it is werth every penny at that $700+ price. (again if you haven't already bought all your gauges with loging capabilites and a power meter)

Edit: I guess the optional sensers at $130 could put it over the top, but it would be nice for a stealth instalation.

Yeah I only have a boost gauge so with all the other options its really not a bad price. I could jsut buy a PFC used for the same price though!

If I dont go PFC I think I will go this route

From what I recall those dont work very well with the stock twin setup running sequential. Just get a profec B.

I have a AVC-R, I like it, you monitor a few different things and it uses the stock sensors. It was pretty dificult to setup as I am sequential and gettint the transition proper took a while as Jason stated. But I like it allot now. Actually I could be wrong but doesn't the EBC have dual electronic control solenoids? Or is that the EBC-ID? If it does have dual solenoids I think its allot easier to tune with sequential then a BC with a single solenoid. If im not mistaken those duals are made for twin turbo cars...
