i bought mine new and it has a 3 bar pressure sensor too. its okay for me but then again i never tried other brands to compare. i think its easier to use the fc commander to control everything

I\'ve got one sat on my desk waiting to be installed. I\'m more after the sensor and the fact i can plug it into the pfc. I don\'t think they are good if you want alot of control over what boost is used at what point in the rev range. Just wanted something to have more scope for the future upgrades.

You would be better off getting something like a Profec B boost kit.

I have one of the Apexi kits fitted and when my car was on the road, it didnt control the boost that well. Once I get it back on the road, I will be replacing it with something like the Profec B or a Turbosmart unit.

cheers lads. I want something that will do a proper job of preventing boost creep. If these are even slightly off on that front then a Profec it is.
