Default EBC: Which one and where to get

Hi,

Have been considering getting an Electronic Boost Controller to replace the manual one I have fitted now.
This would obviously allow for 2 boost settings to be programmed and used and will give a bit more flexibility for when I pop a different turbo onto the 940.

However, I'm not sure which one would give best value for £ spent or indeed the best make/model to get either.

Would appreciate some input from people with experience of these and with more knowledge then me too...

I have seen models (descriptions anyway) of ones from HKS, Blitz and Greddy but would like more pointers..

Des. . .

I was reading about one on Turbobricks last year. Built by an enthusiast and looks pretty impressive.

Hi,

I remember looking at that a couple of years ago, but not sure that boost plus overboost is going to be the same as two different boost levels.

Thanks for reminding me about it though, adds some thought to the equation..
