Greddy Profec B gets my vote.

Had one on both of my skylines and they seem to be the preferred choice on the GTR forum.

About £895 plus £150 for the als all mapped of course.

I know you can switch between boost maps, so you get the benefit of a mappable ecu with boost control, granted it's different to the avcr but imagine paying for that and the apexi on top.

Im sure one of the sellers here can further add to it.

Had a look at one of the profec b ones its quite small so would be easy to locate, where as the avcr is single din size so could go where your stereo once was lol also has quite a few functions on it guess its down to weather you just want it to stablize your boost or more?

Try having a word with Zak he should know and wouldn't tell you to buy one or the other just cause its more expensive, worth a try?
