Default installing a MBC

i just orderd my forge manual boost controller, and am giong to install it . i have a few questions though. from what ive heard it will be better to remove the n75 completly and just run the mbc, because this should make my car hold the boost at high rpm. is this true?

leave the n75 pluged it electronicall but have no vac lines going to it. on the cold side of the turbo u will see a connector that a vac line should go, place on there and run it to ur MBC, on the other side of the mbc attache another vac line and run it to your wastegate, and there u have it...boost controle

Careful with a mbc unless you know what your doing, haha. If you crank alot of boost without adjusting the fuel up top it could get ugly.
