Default simple injector controllers

I'm running a ctsc, was running 10.5psi with an fic but that didnt work out as expected, my tuner brought up the option of a simple injector controller to add the fuel I need with out all the bells and whistles of a full stand alone or piggy back that has too many trade offs. Down the road I may consider my options for a full stand alone if/when upping the boost but, all I need right now is to deliver enough fuel for 9-10psi. I've learned since trying out the fic that I didnt need any timing retard at 10.5psi, still running the stock timing map with no detonation so really whats the point of ditching the excellent running of the stock ecu if all I need to do is add some fuel in the higher rpms. I love SC's

So now that i've summarized where i'm coming from and why, maybe I could get some recommendations on one of half a dozen of these controllers that are out o the market. I have a set of rc 550cc injectors, I think running 2 of these is going to deliver what I need, so that is my initial plan, but I think all of the controller options have the ability to run anywhere from 1-4 injectors. Also I want to point out that I would like to be able to lower my vtec and that will also give me the option to fine tune my fuel curve, IF these two devices are compatible to hook up in a series, that is my other question. Thanks for your feedback

So what I am looking for is recommendations on a injector controller and one that is compatible with running a vafc.

what is it that the F/IC could NOT do for your injectors? Just curious.

It's not worth the time and hassle to do a hack like that when you can pick up an EMS for less than $1500 and have FULL control over everything.

Hmm let me think about this, I need no timing adjustment at 10 psi on my sc, ems cost $1500 plus another $600- $800 tuning and still wont be as good as running stock ecu with stock enjectors, have to remove for emissions. Or I can spend $300-$400 on an injector controller and another $100 or so to have my intake tapped for the 2 additional injectors. Install and tune myself and pass emissions without hassle. Again anyone have any experience on a good injector controller and one that is compatable with a vafc with pnp harness of course?

Interecepting all the cars functions is asking for problems and haslses, especially when all you need is fueling, all I would use is 5% of the ems functions but would be forced to use 75% just to get the car to run with it, not to mention the few anoying things I would be giving up when removing the stock ecu. There is nothing hack about a fuel injector controller, its positives is that it is very strait forward and simple which is always better, no point in overcomplicating the systems in your car forcing yourself to be dependant on questionable tuners, one of which has already blown one of my motors.
