I do hope i ant going to get stung here as well.

Buy from a recommender dealer or someone with a proven track record, not some random guy on the interwebs.

I've never understood the need to alter the boost up and down, save your money, get a mbc setup properly and leave alone.

I leave mine well alone these days, back when I used to be a pansy I turned it down to 12psi in the wet, I use my right foot as boost control now.

 

But, they reduce turbo lag (as I understand it) someone will probably prove me wrong :lol:

Because MBC's suck. EBC gives much better control of spool time, spike and creep.

Yer but.surley if your cars been set up then surley you should be able to get what ? three decent settings on a mbc low med and high. Without issue. Rather than spend three hundred quid on a fancy ebc.surley better to spend that money on getting set up.whitch is the way im thinking of going.cas why would you keep mucking about with it.

Once it's been set up properly, (Noel is doing mine) the only thing I will be switching is from "A" to "B" setting

 

A - NORMAL (Pansie driving)

B - Ballistic - Track day, rolling road/scare myself sh15less

 

If they are all as complicated as my Apexi, then once set, I will be leaving well alone. As it takes someone like Noel who has a very good understanding of duty cycles etc.. to get the best from them, Oh and the most important one, LIMITING THE AMOUNT OF BOOST, to protect your engine!

Got to totaly agree with you Bigh.which is why im thinking i might not need one.an sbc that is.i had one on my other car and didnt use it.so thats pretty much what i want.norm then in the middle then full on for the summer mounths but still safe for the engine.
