Question HKS EVC vs boost control by ECU?

Currently use the HKS albeit same is way too complex for me so considering chopping it out & switching over to the Autronics ECU + 3 port boost solenoid ... any downside to that?

Cheers ears, TX.

PS

Car mods over there

Thanks for link.

Seems Autronics can hold boost OK albeit boost controller better if you need 2 settings or want to adjust it via laptop. TBH I rarely use the lower setting (1.5 bar vs 1.8) so that angle doesn't really concern me; what does though is whether the ECU can hold the boost "better" than the EVC? EVC currently struggles to hold boost (probably down to settings as no one can work the pesky thing out!) so I'm hoping that the Autronics + 3 port will be an improvement

TX.

Autronics ECU will be maybe better control boost with 3 port boost solenoid(probably much better like now at moment)
