both work ok in my experience, both can get 'turned up' pretty quick and easy. my vote is for the eboost tho in a z28 not sure where you would put it.

I had pretty darn good luck with the Greddy unit. Once i wrapped my head around the way it worked, it was pretty nice IMO. Id use it again in a heart beat.

I have heard good things about aem Tru boost as well
From what I've read most ebc use "duty cycle" to control boost but is there any that actually take a desired psi # and auto control ? You think for the money they would work this way but I've yet to see one

I run the eboost2 and love it. Seems to work awesome and they have good tech support...at least with my experience.

EBoost II and dont look back.

It will fit in a gauge pod with a dremel and a little time. Take some electrical tape and wrap it around the outside while you are working on it. It helps prevent cracking/splitting.

Done it numerous times...

think it would fit behind the camaro plate in the center? i have a digital boost gauge in place of the rear defroster plate so it would kinda match. i have the wideband down by my knee kinda in the way and a bitch to watch sometimes but oh well.

is eboost2 that much better? easy to use and set up?

yea tripblack i woulda thought that as well lol

I don't remember the size. Sorry, it's been a few years. I do remember having to use the Dremel on the hole though. It was a tight squeeze.

How did you get ahold of them? I sent them a message through their website & never got a response. My gauge reads about .7 psi with the key on, engine off. It needs calibrated or something.
