Well would you rather be able to adjust the boost while you're driving or just maintain the same boost? I myself choose an MBC, I supposue it would be nice to able to adjust the boost from inside the car but I don't see how it's worth all the extra money.

I had the HKS EVC before, I loved it, will be buying it again. It has two settings, one where you can leave it at stock, and another for uping the boost. Highly reccommend.

Then why are you going to be upgrading your boost controller? You want to get rid of the boost tapering down? I'd recommend the $90 shipped halman MBC if you're not going to be fooling around with boost.

I have the evc and it works fine. It was worth the money to me. But maybe not worth it for sum people.
