Ok I have decided to go witht he TOD6H 20G turbo set up. And im going to be boosting a max of 36psi on race gas.
Now i would like to get a very high level electronic boost controler to handle the boost levels for me. I want it to be dual silinoid as well.
Any ideas guys and gals???
Thanks

Ok well im thinking of these controlers:
APEXi Super AVC-R
Blits SBC I-D
Blitz SBC DC
Blitz Dual SBC Spec-R
Greddy e-01
HKS EVC V

one thing you do have to kept in mind is that electronic boost controllers crep more. But if it was me i would go with the apexi

Im told that the Blitz I-D, Greddy e-01, and HKS EVC V, do not creap at all. There considered top of the line for boost controllers. But there is the ultimate in electronic boost controllers, the HKS EVC Pro. Its around 1300$ but its a full race boost controller and goes to 43psi or some un godly setting.

My TurboXS hpbc spikes a bit (2-3psi)
so Ill be upgrading to the Greddy Profec B II
can get it for under $300 new
just another option to look into

I think im going to go with either the HKS EVC V, Greddy e-01, or the Blitz I-D.
Does anyone use these controlers on here and what do you have to say about them?

36 psi? that sounds a little unsafe... but hey, what do i know... go with the GReddy.

I believe he is now planning to run more acceptable boost pressures. Less than 30 psi.
To say that a boost controller affects creep is completely false. If you ponder the definition of boost creep, you will see that the EBC or MBC is completely unrelated. Spike on the other hand can be affected by boost controllers. But most EBCs will have electronic compensation for it, so it can be adjusted out.
For what its worth, I have the PRofec B for the last few years and it works extremely well, especially for the price. Single solenoid, but it gets the job done. Just be sure your WG spring is at least 15 psi (in this case) since it can only double spring pressure (30 psi). Regardless of what controller you choose I still recomend at least a 15 psi spring. But not much more, so you can keep boost down while learning to tune. ;) Remeber that while you want the strongest spring you can get away with, you can never set boost below your WG spring pressure. Things like this are often more important than selecting the actual boost controller/brand...

Well you are right BoostedSpyder 36psi is engine rebuild teritory. If i ever do acheive this kind of boost level it will only be for a very short time. But i was told that the 20G TDO6H turbo will not flow enough to make any more power above 30psi or so.
So it is somewhat pointless to run over 30psi. But you never know, i might go for it. At such high boost steeings you have to be very carful that your engine does not get starved of oil.
I did a little more research on each of the boost controllers. And it seems that the HKS EVC V is the best of the 3. It has been used on quite a few race cars, as well as offering many safty features, and convienence features that the other 2 do not seem to offer.

Profec-b and e-01 are both very good controllers, but if you want the very best, you are looking for ones more expensive than i've researched. Good luck. I'm sure any of the ones you choose will be fine, just depends on how much money you want to spend.

Heres the catch, The shop that i work at is sponsering my car, and im getting almost all the mods for VERY little or nothing at all. So price is not a problem. But i dont want to go with a 2000$ unit just because its such a waste.
But if all turns out properly my car will become the feature car in the shop as well as be put in all there adds:) My ride will be famous.:D

It's awesome that you are able to do that, I just hate to look at more expensive things than I should be buying, so I try not to do it too much. I just don't know about the expensive stuff so much, but I hope as much as you do that it works out, because i'll have been on the inside before it happened, and learn from the outcome. That means you better make some big posts when it is running.

O you bet your ass im going to put some majour posts up. Dyno sheets, pics on dyno, street pics, strip pics, naked chick on hood pics(gf:)
Lots of performance stuff, actual numbers produced.

Do you have a page on the supra yet?

No, not yet. For now im leaving her as she is. Just a BPU for now. She puts out 400hp or so with the BPU upgrades but nothing special for a supra anyway.
