Kenne Bell

Why? Because I got it cheap haha. Honestly either of them will be fine. ECS has one too. Bypass the **** to leave it on 100% (when triggered on) if it has one and get a 3psi pressure switch or so to activate.

I use a Magnason "Magna-Spark", which is dual triggered. It comes on gradually depending on boost level, and rpm.
