They work with any style wastegate.

My question to you is why, aside from the bling factor and itchy wallet, would you buy one???

For such low boost applications as what our cars run, it's a waste of money. There is nothing to gain boost-wise from running an electronic boost controller in our application. The StreetFlight kit already gives you full boost at around 2700 rpms, and so I fail to se how an electronic boost controller would bo any better than a good manual unit.

BINGO! I like it as its a sweet looking device and can do a lot of sh|t, but too much money. I would get it if I had the extra cash though just so you could monitor so many things right on a digital screen!

I agree, with the contour running such low boost levels there is no need whatsoever for a Greddy e-01. I wanted one for my 18psi sentra and didn't get it. I went with the $200 cheaper Profec B and it is an awesome unit. You can see it here:



It is the blue unit. The silver is a greddy turbo timer and the deck above them is an eclipse.

Please no bullcrap on my Tach! It was free.

dude that tach is soooo ricy! man you must have a giant aluminum wing on your car too!!.....

im just playing the primary reason i wanted the e-01 was because it had the screen, i was not too thrilled about adding more gauges to my car (already have my a-pillar filled w/ oil stuff). Kinda looks lame to have the boost gauge and a/f sensor laying around, besides i have no place to put them ;P unless i make a custom housing or something which would be quite a mess.

one more thing, my car isn't running too low of a boost i got 14psi and vct to deal with.
