Default electronic boost controller?

Im lookin for an affordable electric boost controller for my new turbo setup.

i really like the Turbosmart E-boost2, but its over 500$, and the only thing like it is the AEM tru-boost, at 250$.

has anyone heard of/used the HDi hybrid gauge + boost controllers? seems an affordable option under 200$ but it doesnt look like it lets you dial in the boost with a digital interface like the ebost or truboost. looks like it just uses a basic analog dial like other knock off electronic boost controllers. i really like thier gauge though.

grab a greddy EBC. they are very reliable and can be found online for 200-300 (depending on if you want new or used)

the turbos are 57mm. the motor is a 331. currently running about 9psi of boost because i havent had time to get on the dyno. i plan to run 15-20psi when im all done tuning. im still taking it easy at the track, just launching the car off the line at 2500rpm. should see much better 60' times when i start pushing it harder
