Hallman makes very good boost controllers, but I don't know if I could justify paying almost 200 for a MBC. What size wastegate do you have and how much do you plan on boosting up to? If you just want to raise it a couple psi, a $20 eBay boost controller will do the job just fine. If you plan boosting a lot more than your wastegate's preset limit, I would invest in a little better one like a Hallman or TurboXS on eBay. They usually run around 50-60 bucks. I have a 3 psi spring in my wastegate and use an eBay boost controller to bring it up to 8 and around 6-8 it get's a little sketchy (needle jumping between 6-8) so I'm sure a better boost controller would help with that.

What size wastegate do you have. I would think just a cheap eBay one would be fine.

I think if you're going to spend that much, you might as well just get an EBC
