Apexi seems to be most peoples choice.
I've got a blitz duel-sbc in mine and cant fault it at all.
Think if it didnt come in with my car though I would have bought an Apexi

Think that the only problem with the Apexi is that its quite a large unit which might be quite awkward to mount somewhere

The Apexi AVC-R is a good unit but if you get the right ECU you will not need an auxilliary boost controller as the ECU will already have that facility and more.
The Simtek has very good boost control with 3D mapping, closed loop boost control AND in gear boost so this ECU is completely stand alone and does not need an AVC-R.
Contact Steve Simpson, simpson.msport@tiscali.co.uk for more information and the location of the nearest dealer to you.
