ORIGINAL: quattrosedan

ok...here is what you do...
one hose goes into wastegate.
one hose goes to intake manifold.
one hose goes to n75 valve.

That is how my mbc was hooked up on the gt28r. It was a pos from ebay and it worked.
that dosent sound right and i want to not use my n75 at all. i found out that the hoses that ecs sent me were too small so they are sending me new ones and hopefully that will work.

oh, you dont want to use your n75. Then listen to jeff, he had it right for that setup.

y do u have one going from the turbo intake pipe?
i would do it turbo---mbc---wastegate thats all u need

just that third one out and plug that hole, also make sure that u have all the vaccuum lines going the right way into the mbc

I've installed this Forge MBC from ECS about a month ago, and I can honestly say - best $35 I've ever spent! Just like you, I stoped using N75, this MBC replaced it entirely... Boost comes in sharp and effortlessly, 1/3-1/2 throttle feels alive!

I did not use any of the new hoses, all pluged into the stock n75 locations:



Boost is strong and steady at all times.

Jeff,

Nothing for fuel right now, according to prior owner, car is chiped with low end Neuspeed. It was boosing at 11 with n75, that is where I left it with MBC, though have seen nice 15 while tuning it initially for this mbc right after the install, felt so good...

Next month k04 with 5bar FPR goes in (all here), so not sure what boost I will be running then, will see the curves I guess...
