actualy it is from them. i just saw the same picture from there facebook page on may 2nd...LOL
they had a 699 deal a while back whuch was the wheel, shift boot and e-brake for $699 which seems like a great deal. bit i think the flat bottom was extra and so was the matching airbag cover.

I have the HKS EVC 5 Black Limited. Display is mounted just right of the steering stalk and the control unit is in the arm rest.
It came with my car (previous owner) and because I dont really know how to use it well, its either turned off or at 0% increase almost all of the time and operating as a recorder of max boost at 1.0bar. I always worry about leaning it out too much during the winter in sub zero temps with 91 octane.
Tuners have looked at the logs in warmer weather at 1.5bar and felt fine that its okay, but I dont understand enough to take their word for it with my engine to run it anywhere near that in cold temps.
So Im happy to have the EVC recording my max boost to make sure nothing is creeping for now. Ive debated taking it out and just tuning for 1.2bar (k16/24, exhaust and 100 cell cats, 5bar fpr, STOCK ic's and injectors, all the EVOMS plumbing).
Dont want to derail this interesting thread, but pls PM me with advice!
Car put down 550awd hp and 575lbft at 1.5bar on a conservative dyno (first thing I did after I bought it was confirm tune was fine).
I have the logs if anyone wants to see.

I don't use it as a boost controller, but as a secondary boost gauge and utilize the "High Boost Memory" feature...I also re-did the blue Greddy graphics in black, as I did not care for the blue look...

looks good in black. is there a cover you pulled off and got it painted? thanks for the help. Black would look MUCH better than the blue in my car also

Yea, I removed the plastic cover, then removed the graphics, masked the window area and sprayed it black on the back side. It's a pretty simple project and looks perfect. I always disliked the blue look of it and thought about doing this for a year or two, then one winter day when the car was in storage mode decided to just attack it...should have done it sooner!
