It just came out, I didn't know it was coming out, Sharif probally didn't know as well when he installed yours. Its on the HKS website now. A little more expensive but has some cool features. I am currently swapping out my EVC5 for it. Ill let you know how it performs, because it looks awesome

Other features I like about the EVC6 which I dont know if the Apexi unit has are:
Learning feature ( input desired boost and it adjusts gain accordingly)
Mapping options ( you can create a boost map with 2 axes ( speed, boost, tps, rpm, etc. )
Let me know if you have any other questions.

yeah i know im sorry i should have done more research but i cant since im deployed and i barely get a chance to come online and most of the time only on here for like 5 min.....
any ways.... will the motor be fine if i just keep it at default psi or one psi higher than the default psi with it being untuned? because i'll be gettin my TT kit installed when i go on R&R and hopefully be able to run it when it gets installed...

He means the motor is a ticking time bomb when controlled by the emanage. You're better off going with the UTEC at a bare minimum for tuning, even at the stock boost levels of the kit. Don't drive it untuned. You might get away with it, but just read some of the horror stories of guys blowing their motors withing a week of installing their kits. If you're looking for an FCON, check out Forged Performance. You have to have it installed and tuned by an HKS certified dealer if I recall correctly.
