    I think thats the dumbest shit I have heard. Both have their benefits, I personally like MBC. I have heard nothing but good things about the newer AEMs.
    Try not. Do or Do not.

    The TruBoost is nice, takes a little getting used to like any new piece of electronics. However it is not my favorite EBC, that goes to the GReddy Profec B spec 2. If you do get the TruBoost make sure it is the newer version, the buttons on the old one were very hard to push and actually made my finger tips hurt during initial set up.

    exactly what I was going to say...even down to the fingers.

    I personally use the profec b spec 2 and prefer that over others, but once u learn the button sequuences the tru boost can be better because it's just one item vs gauge and separate boost controller.

    Tru boost is awesome, a couple of my friends have it. I've got the AEM wideband.

    I got it so I could consolidate the boost controller and the gauge into one unit. Once you get the gain set it holds solid and the gain only takes a few pulls to get set.
