I have never heard a complaint about those. They are a simple mechanical design. They will not increase lag but my decrease it a bit. Can't go wrong with one.

I've got the basic one. It works good but the only thing I don't like is you have to use an allen wrench to adjust it. The top looks like a **** but it isn't.

Do you know how to adjust it (like how much of a turn = X PSI)?

No I don't, I set it in spring and haven't toutched it since. BUT its not like one turn = 1psi, its more like 1/2 or 1/3 turn = 1psi.

well i just got my turbo xs dual stage boost controller. it has accually increased my turbo spool. it holds at the psi very well. i love how you can be in the middle of boost and then hit the switch to the second solenoid and you get another batch of psi. deffinetly worth it imo. figured i would let you know what i thought of this product so you people know what and what not to get.

I really want to get the turbosmart MBC or dual stage...

I like how the adjustment **** has a clicking mechanism, so you can adjust your boost carefully and one click at a time if you want too... plus you don't need any wrenches to adjust the boost...
