not to put a damper in you aspirations but i owned one before and holy crap what a pain in the ass it was to set it up right. i had it in my mazdaspeed protege and in short i sold the car before i could even get it close to running right..
either way good luck, i bought mine on ebay btw, for those things i wouldnt go used because the solenoids do experience wear and tear depending on how much boost you run. if i recall correctly they max out at 21-25/26 psi

Yea I'll most likely end up buying new. I bet they're a pain to setup but I have read plenty of positive feedback on them.

Yea I have the AEM v.2
I already have a Mac solenoid but I've read great things on the Tru boost. I should just buy the digital boost gauge huh since i already have the solenoid
