Question Do I get an electronic boost controller with or w/out fuzzy logic and which is best?

I've heard that electronic boost controllers that use fuzzy logic and 3rd gens. don't go well together because of the sequential turbos. I'm trying to find the best choice of EBC for my 7 and read in a # of places that the Greddy Profec B would be the best choice because it doesn't use fuzzy logic, is this true? I don't mind paying more for an EBC, I just want the one that will work best in my 7. If anyone has any knowledge on the subject to pass on to me I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks for your time.

controller

Profec B

Absolutely rock solid performance.

PS: get a Pop off valve too just for added insurance.

a pressure relief valve is a cool idea, where can you get one and where should it be mounted?

Popoff valves can be found here

Mount the valve between the IC and intake as close to the intake as possible

Might be a good low dollar alternative but make sure it is the Pop safety valve and it doesn't appear that the McMaster units are adjustable. Something to consider anyway.
