if your not making big power or plan to at all id go the 3ed $30 one. set a boost level.. its not like 8PSI on low and 12PSI on high is going to make much.. and why do you want to put your foot flat at 8PSI when you can put your foot flat with 14:S.. never realllllly got the duel stage but my Gizzmo has 6 stages..

I use a Gizzmo boost controller. I reckon they're fairly good and they have all of these options. Fully configurable turbo time Active over boost control Real time boost gauge Adjustable up to 50lb (3.5bar) 64mhz RISC Processor Technology Open or Closed loop boost control Suits Internal and External WastegatesMemories: 6 Boost control: Open or closed loop Maximum Boost: 3.5bar Scramble Time: 1 – 100sec Scramble Duty: 0 – 50% Over Boost Range: 5 – 50lb Turbo Timer Time: 0 – 5min Boost Cut Range: 2 – 6.5V Processing Power: 64mhz RISC MSIBC – Proven 7 second performance Fastest Skyline in Europe Holds Onto Its Crown With the Gizzmo MS-IBC The Fastest Skyline in Europe, owned and "piloted" by John Bradshaw, ran a 7.75s 1/4 at 176mph this weekend (28th September 2008) at Santa Pod in the Nationals. This Gizzmo Sponsored Animal of a GTS-T is Rear Wheel Drive and only 2.8 litre! The Gizzmo MS-IBC (http://www.gizzmoelectronics.com/Product_MSIBC.html) Electronic Boost Controller it runs made a significant difference over the Electronic Boost Controller that was fitted previously. In conjunction with other modifications Johns GTST has dropped from mid 8s to an 8.1 second 1/4 earlier in the summer. Project GTST has now run three back-to-back 7 second passes in one day on low boost!!! (http://www.gizzmoelectronics.com/skyline.html) Official figures are yet to be announced, but it rumoured to make 1140hp at the hubs at a rock steady 2.2 bar without Nitrous on high boost and over 1000hp at the hubs on low boost. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Are there boost controllers that have turbo timers built in? If so can anyone post up some links. I want an EBC, but have no idea what to look for.
