Which boost controler is the best??

Hi guys,

I´m thinking in install a boost controler on my 7, but I´m not sure about which one. In one hand the EVC 5 from HKS and from another one the AVC-R from Apexi :-? . The HKS one is more expensive and I love very much the screen of the Apexi, 8) but, which is better?? Is worth the extra cost of the HKS?? Which one do you prefer??

:helpme:

Cheers!

Pedro

the hks one is a bag o shite for the money IMHO

the AVCR is technically the best piece of kit.

For ease of fitting and use IMO, the blitz ones are the best

as tina says its not too bad to install, but it is time consuming and it needs wiring to the ecu. the setting up can take some time too, and really needs to be done in the correct order aswell.
