Default help out a domestic guy

I have a fully built 99 stang. It was blown (numbers in sig), now I'm going single turbo. I'm running a Q-Trim T76 with a Tial external waste gate. This is a street car that will see anywhere from 7-20 psi. What would you guys recommend as far as electronic boost controllers go? The AVC-R seems nice, but I would rather not have a big blue screen mounted on my dash. Which ones are reliable, easy to use/program, and good for the money?

I'm asking here because there are few turbo mustangs, and the few that are out there are usually built for the strip and thus don't care to much about in-cockpit adjustable boost.

Thanks

The greddy profec B is a nice unit. Easy to setup, not prone to spiking. unlike the AVC-R where if you don't program it right, it can spike... I haven't used either. Was going to go with the AVC-R at first, but I'm thinking about getting a profec B.

Dont know how much you have done as far as ecu, but I know alot of the big mustang guys run the FAST and have boost silonoid to controll the boost. Another option for the Non big blue screen would be the new HKS EVC that is really nice.

yeah a FAST system is out of the question, not only it is expensive, from what I hear the built in boost control isn't very good. Great for tuning, just doesn't control boost well. I'm using a 4-position Autologic chip for fuel and timing, with lots of dyno time scheduled

For the money, you can't beat a Profec B. Seen multiple serious race cars running them. Also what I have.

Autologic is a great choice and very cheap! But I think your best bet will be a HKS, Greddy Profec-b, or Blitz SBC-id.
