Okay, so running an NBT screen (APIX1) with an EVO HU, needs a BUCK regulator. So looks like I bought the correct one. I'll have to return the boost regulator then.

How is your regulator working? Has it been reliable? Or did you purchase yours from CarSystems?
The Car Systems ones are not that good. I would buy a 10 pack of buck converters on Amazon for $10 and solder it inline. Also I think the screen gets straight car power. I got over 13v with my evo on my test bench.
