All depends what you want. If you want to be able to change the boost from inside the car and dont mind spending over 300 bucks then the EBC is for you... if you dont want to spend that much and dont mind going under the hood to change it... then the MBC is for you.

I'f you know how too, i suggest you make one, with parts from your local hardware store. I enjoy the lazyness of having not to pop the hood, but manual boost controllers are just way safer, and more reassuring.
But that's my suggestion.
Good Luck

I guess I don't understand why you wouldn't want the most boost you could get all the time. Why would you want your car to be slower then it could be?

you cant just run more boost. if you do youll blow your car up... there is alot that makes a car fast boost is only the smallest peice of the equation. and you def need to do a little homework on the whole deal so ill cut it to the chase for you and get ready to read (please dont take offence either)

So is there a set psi that I should set it to? If there is, why would I want an EBC? . . . Sorry about all the newbie questions, I'm just trying to figure all this out. I can't seem to find any good info anywhere else.

Keep doing some more research. Youve got alot to learn about turbo cars. You can only run as much boost as the car can handle. And there are many parts that control what you can run. First the fuel system can only supply so much fuel, so that makes it about 15 psi max. Then with that upgrading the turbo is actually junk boosting anything more than 18psi. Saying your boostin 24psi doesnt mean youll actually build that, you might spike at that but your car will never handle nor hold that. And it is really bad for the car and youll actually be slower than if you ran 16psi. Efficiency of a system is far more important than boost
