To be honest a PID won't resolve the issue. Fundamentally the boiler is too small. Each shot you pull is taking a significant volume of water out and it cools too much. A PID can't accommodate this inconsistency - all it does is a more accurate tempeature surf. When I had a Silvia with the auber PID the temp would drop by approx 10 degrees over the course of one shot being pulled. You can imagine what subsequent shots would do.
