Default What Boost controllers is everyone using? Which is best?

I'm gathering everything I'm going to need to turbo my car (98 Integra RS, b18b1). I was wondering what boost controllers most of you guys are using and which one is best. I've heard MBC's arent as good as EBC's because they dont have a good response, or something along those lines. Could someone elaborate more?

IM not a fan of EBCs from the probs I had.
I run manuals now and they work flawlessly. I at the moment run a dual stage Turbo Xs and works awesome

i use to run the greddy profec B spec 2, hated it. I've ran with the AVCR, hated it. I'm now using the aem ems to control boost via the apexi boost soleniod. its awesome. i have 3 boost settings at the track and a hi/lo for the street

I'm running a Greddy Profec B spec 1 or whatever it's called (older one, 3 dials) Works pretty good. I would like to get the AEM boost controller working better, got tired of messing with it. Hey D-Tuned, wanna hook me up with your settings, maybe it would help me out setting up mine better, hit me up at my email, mstolars@comcast.net. Thanks

Profec b spec 2 ebc


but its not doing anything currently the leaks in my exhaust are keeping boost at a underwhelming 4-6psi. I fixed a number of them but i guess i didnt get them all... time for a teardown of the system i guess and tripple check it all this weekend.

Its seems the general consensus is MBC over EBC. Could someone give some insight as to why? Is it price? Performance? Or just mere preference?

you should ask yourself how much you want to spend on a BC. for a good one is going to cost you over 500 easily
