It depends on the boost controller. The Profec B is the easiest to install but also has the least features. U should also consider the perfomance gain with the controller.
The 3 main factors in choosing a boost controller in order of importance (imo):
1. Performance gain and features
2. Price (bang for the buck)
3. Complexity

It depends how mechanically inclined you are. The EVC IV took me about an hour. It's really how comfortable you are working with electronics and vaccume lines.

If you can afford it, Apex is the best.
Here is a picture of how to hook it up.

rxtasy,
I may come off sounding like an *** but since my car is pretty much completely stock(not much room to move around or look) how complicate is it to get to the wastegate and isn't it an internal one?

There are 2 nipples coming off your turbo.
One goes to the wastegate and the other goes to your boost sensor.
If you can see your turbo, it shouldn't be too hard to get to?
