Default MBC

Im buying a MBC tonight. Should I have them install it for 30 bucks or should I just do it myself? How easy is it? I have done everything on my car myself but I know very little about MBCs. I have also heard if they arnt installed correctly serious problems can occur.

Without a serious turbo upgrade I didn't think our cars had any use for a MBC. The computer along with our N75 valve(? Someone tell me what this is) controlls our boost. Sorry if I'm completely wrong but I think this is what I read on the Zine.

I personally wouldn't do it at all. My roommate tried putting one on his TT stealth and he gained maybe 2-3 lbs of boost. Just save your money and chip it. I don't think that can be said enough.

Yeah, I wouldnt add a boost controller if you're chipped...

Well, I'd never add one, but that's just me... and lots of other people on this forum...
It was just mentioned yesterday or the day before... I'm too lazy to search for it.
