APR wont support you, and you would be a braver man than me going with Custard code..

What is the problem with Custom Code?  And APR?

The only reason you would need to run a manual boost controller is that we do not support that turbo as the 3071r is much more efficient!

you may get away with using a 3071r file but we've never tested it with a 2871r the potential issue being that we haven't tuned the boost control for that turbo.... I don't see the issue with running a MBC? It's not like the car needs to be butchered to fit it... if anything it's piece of mind as you know that your boost is going to be regulated correctly and with all the electronic boost controllers on the market now it can be fine tuned to suit your needs perfectly.

i would defo run the controller and hide it in the ash tray or in the little tray at the side of the steering wheel and then just have the map from revo

Mods yes but way too many to stick in this little box

any MBC really depends on how much you want to spend.... lots of people have been using the eBoost2 recently

As Carl says mate.. Electronic boost controller and Revo stage 3 map and your away! Adjustability on boost timing and fuel which you wont have with anything else, and peace of mind that your running the best map out there..

Ran it on the S3 and now the ED30 and seriously its super smooth, great MPG (not that I really care much about that) and when you want to go f*ck me its fast!
