Cheap effective boost controller
This seems to be pretty reasonable, I'm going to get with rockauto and see if I can carry this item. For now search rockauto by part number.
Silenoid:
214474
$48.89 Rock Auto
or
https://www.iagperformance.com/shopp...p?prod=1997152
25$
Pigtail:
PT374
$15.40 Rock Auto
or
http://store.summitracing.com/partde...0&autoview=sku
8.00
(supposedly the same as the above pigtail)
Total: $64.29 Rock auto
Total: Various $33.00 (at 33$ you'd have to be crazy not to make the jump!)
Not a bad cost for going EBC regardless of where it comes from. Better boost response, boost by gear, vary boost by RPM. All at your finger tips. If anyone has a better suggestion please let me know.

this is cheaper and better: EBC Electronic Boost Control Solenoid Kit DIYAutoTune.com
last i heard GM stopped making anymore solenoids, you might order them and wait for it endlessly.

The benefits of using the DIY unit is you can select matching hose barbs so you don't have to chad-rig vacuum lines, plus you get all metal barbs instead of the chincy plastic barb on the GB unit.
I have the GM unit and don't like it, it works but i don't like the install due to the barb size differences with my Tial.
