I'm a newb and sorry if this is a repost but I searched and couldn't find this question asked. Anyway, has anyone heard any information on, or used/installed, one of these boost controllers?

Is it safe to use with stock internals, minus the diverter valve they recomend to replace? My previous car was a VR6 so i never really bothered to read up too much on these kinds of things

The TT I am thinking of installing this on is the 225 nonvvt.

 

That thing only boost to 1bar where you car is at already, so you gain nothing.

 

who runs an mbc on here? I had one on my evo in the uk & it was great! Anyone tried the modshack boost unit thingy ma bob?

 

really? I guess I'll just go with the APR chip then. Thanks

 

The majority of the members here run a mbc or ebc (electronic). The turboXS HPBC is a great mbc since it is a good price, small, and gives you lots of tunabilty.

 

^ im turboxs... no complaints, easy install, easy to set, and your good to go

 

right on, I'll check those out. should I be good with stock internals, i see you have a lot of mods

 

The stock internals will hold much more than the stock turbo

 

The TurboXS looks great and a superb price to boot!... how do you go about installing them? does it simply go into the vacuum pipes? i am presuming that before buying one you will need a boost gauge to see where its settings are and how to fine tune? how does it marry with an APR remap? will it cause any conflicts? whats the max pressure you guys run? im defo up for that! looks great too.....

 

to install, just remove the vacuum lines from the n75 on the intake and install them on the mbc and you are done. If would be VERY wise to buy and install a boost gauge first so you know where you put yourself after you install the mbc. The mbc will work with any chip tune, some just get fussy if you make the turbo spool up much faster than the n75 did. With the turboxs, you just add in more bleed and you will fine. For the 180, 20-22psi is tops, for the 225, 22-24psi is tops
