The brand names aren't that big, my friend owns his own whole sale business and he dosn't even have a big name brand one, and there isn't that much of a difference from a mbc and a electronic the difference is though that you adjusted electronically instead of you getting out of the car and adjusting it and there might be other stuff but it's really not worth the money.

Some EBC's are known to spike, where as MBCs dont. I'd go with a manual boost controller. I'd recommend the dejon tool mbc.

a good ebc like the greddy profec b is a very reliable boost controller and wont allow spike. manual boost controllers can spike. however, if you have a reliable boost guage ( and u need one with any boost controller) you can monitor any spike and a manual boost controller will work fine. in my opinion a manual boost controller is reliable enough, the ebc's are just too expensive. i use the turbo xs high performance one, it has 2 adjustment knobs, course and fine tuning, and i havnt had any problems with it. it was about $80

Hallman makes good mbc's along with others. The biggest differance between a manual and an electronic are that the electronics aren't as reliable at higher boost levels. Also you should never get a boost controller of any kind without being able to monitor the levels, so a guage should be installed before or at the same time. Hallman also makes a kit so you can actually adjust the levels from inside the car. Some other companies make mbc's that have an electronic two position switch that allows you to switch between two preadjusted levels without any messing around. When I get one this is probably the setup I would go with.
