Hi all,

I've read some bad reports of the Profec boost controllers going wrong, and was wondering what other options people recommend instead and the associated cost?

Or is the Profec B EBC the best one to go for?

Thanks

I'm a fan of getting an uprated EBV and using the ECU to control the boost. But personally I have an Apexi which I find good as it lets you control boost relative to the revs.

OK so it seems like the options are

1) Greddy Profec B
2) Gizmo Electronics
3) Apexi

Is there much in it? I presume the Greddy will be a good bet because there are plenty of people who know how to set them up!

yeah i think it have been up many times before, and most time people would prefer that one they have self..

I think the Apexi works great....

i love my Apexi so much control in each gear with the boost and duty

My choice would be the Greddy (as i have one)

I have Greddy too as i think the rest are big & ugly.

Also you should consider where & how you can mount/fix the controller.
Like TurboJ says some are larger than others.
The Greddy is small, can be fitted in the ashtray, stuck to the bottom of the dash or like i have.
I've had a holder made that replaces the driver side air vent which has a slot for the Greddy to fit in.

If I've had a gtec1 and prv checked on the RR, will I need to go back to the RR if I fit an EBC?

If not I feel a GB coming on.

Thanks

Hmmm I'd have the Apexi for control, the Greddy for simplicity.

Shameless plug Richard?

My Greddy's about to be custom mounted where the centre vents currently are and there'll be an analogue boost gauge next to it for good measure - piccies to follow.

Oh and I prefer the Greddy but have heard good things about the Apexi AVCR and very good things about the Blitz iD-3.

Shameless ??????

where did u get the holder from? cheers

Where did you read this info

Just read a couple of threads on here about them dying - something about a fuse I think.....

I had the holder made, have sold them via 2 group buys now.

I think the Apexi is really good, being able to control boost easily dependent on revs and what gear you're in is great!

i also have a apexi and think it works super.. but i find it a little uhandy, it is hard to build in, so it look nice
