Thanks everyone.

Looks like the Profec B Spec II is what I am going to get.

Now, who has the cheapest price for them?

Im using a Blitz SSBC. I dont think they are made anymore but i got it used for $120. 2 knobs Lo/Hi boost. Very simple to use and quite effective

I've heard that the Greddy Profec B spec II is the best from numerous people.
I'm getting one as soon as I get the $$$.

I was running the Profec-b on my wrx before I went with ecutek.
I still have it and might consider selling it.

I went with a Blitz SBC-iD because I liked the features, it doesn't have too many features that makes it more than just a controller and it has four channels + the wastegate.

It came out to about 17-20 bucks by the instructions I used, a little under 10 bucks for the parts and about 7 for a tap to tap a cap, a #60 really frickin small drill bit, and some teflon tape. Also, the >10 figure included a bag of 4 springs when I only needed one, and I just picked up some more ball bearings from the bike shop because they're really cheap, so I could build 3 more of these things at a cost to myself of like 6-7 dollars.

One thing, HDPE really let me down, I had to drag my ass halfway around that dang store and back again to try to find all the parts, and eventually had to go to the bike store and to ace hardware to find half of the stuff I needed, plus they didn't have the best kind of npt tee so I got stuck using a backup that lets the spring deflect more. HDPE gets two thumbs down on this one.
