A boost controller is a boost controller, it depends on how much your willing to spend. I would suggest getting a electronic boost controller if you have the money to buy one. Especially if you live in a area where the climate changes heavily from night to day. If you go with a manual then pretty much any one will do. I bought a 14$ one off ebay for my stealth and it works great, and I have a AVC-R for my rx7 which I absolutely love. You will get many mixed opinions on this subject.

that one doesn't look too bad, You'll be able to tell the ones not to get, which are the one's that look hand made. It really all depends on what you have to spend though. If you have the money. Then get a good name brand one. You can get that at a reasonable price on ebay i believe.

On reply to DSMtalonAWD51: My talon would actually hold the 15 psi when i had the MBC in there, it never dropped back to 12. But i really don't know what i had for HP on it with the bolt ons. It had to be pretty good though to keep up with an evo.

Ya I was going to comment on that also.....I think we even had it hold 17psi to redline, not on purpose of course.

What year talon did you have? You may have been able to, but I don't believe its suppose to hold that... Those damn cheap plastic blow off valves on the 2g's suck for holding a lot of boost..

OOOH LA LA

hahaha. I wish I could upgrade Turbos but I don't have the money

OH welllll.

I'm assuming the more you boost the less mpg you get, but does anyone know about how much I'd loose going from the stock boost to 15psi?
