Thumbs up just installed ebc

Finally got my Blitz SBC ID3 boost controller installed and this thing is awesome. So easy to adjust and has so many funtions. I highly recommend this ebc if you have the money to spend. I know mbc is easy but once you try a ebc im sure you wont go back. With 4 different boost settings at a touch of a button and peak boost display you now dont have to try and look at your gauge and try to pin point what its reading. BTW it has digital and graph display. Worth every penny People have been posting problems with mbc and ebc so its hard to say none will give you any problems but im lucky my ebc holds boost very solid, maybe they installed it wrong or whatevers. For those who say its hard to use then you have bought the wrong one or your just dumb.. j/k With a mbc its like having a cd player with just a play button only, not even fast forward or rewind

Blitz sbc id3

Only bummer about us sbc id3 owners is that the new Blitz ebc which has been announced at some shows (saw it in Modified magazine) is even cooler. Has a color LCD display!

While you can't ignore the value of a mbc, you also can't ignore the coolness of an ebc to play around with inside the car. Now you just have to pair it up with a PowerMeter and you'll have even more buttons to play with and displays to watch. I've got mine mounted in the upper DIN slot.

I prefer the way its looks right now. I think color display might look a bit fruity BTW thanks for the tip on the setup settings for the Evo. I might be getting the power meter as well

I don't have a a nice Alpine like you, and really it's indulgent for me to even have the stock GSR stereo that I've recontented into my RS

All the Evo 8 in Taiwan get the same exact Alpine head unit
