well, give me your opinions, i have a 94 integra rs, stock motor, i will only be runing around 7-8psi on stock block with a t3, with most lkely a future rebuild, so i want room to upgrade ya know. i want an electronic BC for sure. any opinions on the avc-r?
this isnt going to be a big drag car or anything, just for mostly street/occasional strip i guess-thanks

Profec b is a great boost controller! I used it for a few months and was much better than the HKS one i was previously using. I am now trying out the Turbo XS dual stage boost controller, its supposed to be excellent for the price.

I just picked one up myself for 169 shipped! Cant beat the value and the ability to switch boost settings while driving..plus the rocket switch is cool...
