Profec B rules, cheap, easy to hook up, easy to set, looks good, easy to mount and it'll work every time...

I use an AVC-R which takes a bit of work to get set up. Once dialed in, it's great. You're able to adjust boost and duty cycle by RPM which is great. The Blitz is able to adjust boost by gear which I would love. Then there's this little unit which controls boost over rpm AND by gear.

Then I looked at the price and realized I'd be halfway to a Motec stand alone w/ built in boost control that does all I ask it to do. What a joke. $1139 is a bit much for a boost controller even if it does have a turbo timer and ignition retard.

running lower boost in 1st gear helps with keeping traction and getting off the line by lessening the HP going to the wheels and there by eliminating some wheelspin...

Yup, Dragon nailed it on the head. First gear is a rocket at about 7kg. Anything above and the wheels just go up in smoke.
