Don't know much about the meth but for boost controllers. Eboost is a good one, Innovative is sweet if you have the $$$. I'm probably going to run a Apexi for the price and it seems easy to mount. There are several people that just run a manual. They work fine.

Well I'm running the dual stage cooling mist system and turbo xs hp dual stage boost controller and it all seems to work just fine. boost controller was 175 and cooling mist system was 300 shipped. Yes there are more expensive systems out there but since i'm running low boost levels I don't see the need to spend more on it.

Apexi is quite awkward to set up. I'd avoid it if possible.

Ive used the Greddy Profec B on a few cars. Simple and it works.

I have been VERY IMPRESSED with the Devil's Own controller. When it comes right down to it, all of the methanol injection systems use the same pump, nozzles, etc. The only difference is the controller. I really like a small, microprocessor-based unit. It works well, and takes its signal off of a GM 2bar [or 3 bar for you psychos ] MAP sensor. Very simple and it works!

I ran the snowperformance kit on my 4.3 SS.. It did come with the low level indicator and the controller was small and easy to install. It has 2 dials on the controller.. 1 dial tells the meth to come on at a certain setpoint, and the other tells when to come on at full blast. I couldn't tell half the time what my dials were set at. That was the only complaint. While I had the stage 2 kit (NON MAF KIT) it was EASY to install and worked excellent for my boosted application. Once I take it to the 1200hp level I will try the devil own setup. I have heard nothing but good things about them and they seem to have a better all around package on the market. Everything in their kit seems to be "smart" if you will as far as technology, with the processors and things..

My car has any alky control and the sales and service support were great. But, all kits use nearly identical core parts. You can even build an non-progressive kit yourself that will work just as well - do searches here and at turbobuick for diy alky.

Yea, it will. Devilsown uses quickconnect fittings and cooling mist use barb fittings. Other than that they are pretty much the same.

i run snow stuff and it works good.
i run an e boost and it also works good.

the thing about the progressive controllers is that anyone who has one eventually winds the thing wide open.. so just skip that step and save yourself some money.
