Bo0st ControllerS?

hey guys i was just planning ahead since my motor is getting built right now, i wanted to know what are a couple of the best boost controllers out right now that are user friendly/easy to use... i am going to be boosting with built motor on either hondata s200/s300 or neptune...i was looking into Turbo XS dual and quadstage manual boost controllers, and the turbo xs DTEC Boost Controller Pro that runs off of gameboy sp...i am leaning towards the DTEC because it has gear dependant boost settings and i wanted to run diff boost levels in each gear so i can have low boost during the launch so i can gain traction but not sure because i have never herd of this unit at all... here is some info on the DTEC:

The DTEC-BC-PRO is quite simply THE BEST boost controller ever made. It turns your Gameboy Advance SP into a powerful Electronic Boost Controller cabable of controlling boost pressures in excess of 60psi. The DTEC-BC-PRO allows everything from simple "one number" boost control that can be set up in minutes to the most advanced closed loop, gear dependant, RPM, and throttle position based programmable boost controller ever conceived. It comes standard with 60+psi cabaple inline boost control solenoid; 45psi MAP sensor; KnockLite detonation detector and more. Advanced features include the ability to store and switch between five (5) different boost maps; scramble mode; overboost protection; "start boost" feature to speed turbo spool up; and gain control. You even have the option of adding a second solenoid (sold separately) to completely control pressure to both the top and bottom of you external wastegate for the ULTIMATE in high boost control. These are features you will not find in the $680 Greddy E01; the $655 Blitz SBC-id; the $629 Apexi AVC-R; or even the $725 HKS EVC V.

The Gameboy Advance SP is not included. While it is required to set up the boost controller you do not have to leave it plugged into the DTEC-BC-Pro.

what you guys think...? TIA

If you go with Neptune, it has integrated boost control, with pretty much every feature. I would reccomend using that, because it's probably better than anything else. In the end, it will be cheaper than Hondata and an external EBC.

really, i thought if i used hondata or neptune they both require and external BC...so if i used the integrated BC with neptune does it have an option for gear dependent boost? What i need is something where i can program diff. lbs of boost for diff. situations and traction issues... if i go with neptune and use there BC will i be able to control any elements of boost and diff. tune maps from the drivers seat? is that possible with neptune? will it require a laptop or anything like that...? lmk thanks...

Do some reading on Neptune. It has all the features of an EBC.

If you want boost tunability while driving, an EBC is the only way. FYI, there is no real reason to do that. If you want a performance/street selection, Neptune does feature that, although it is not strictly a boost control idea (it's more general).
