I'm thinking of buying a MBC because I haven't gotten rid of the boost-fluctuations.

So, does this seem to be a reasonable MBC?

It's a swedish model, approx 32eur.

So, what do you think?

Its the same as a Forge which doesnt work so well. Get yourself either a turboxs hpbc or a turbosmart mbc (not incabin) and they will both give smooth boost onset and cure any boost issues

we [RandomHouseRacing.com] make boost controllers. i can have you one made. it is like many of the other designs that you see out there. some like to call them "ace hardward MCB's." it uses similar components but truely has no boost spike or fade. there is no fluctuation in our design. [its a secret ]

$20 shipped and its yours.

They are $70-110USD

You can find them at just about any good tuner website and also on ebay

Isn't that a bleeder? It says so in the description?

A ball-and-spring, you're talking 'bout a Dawes Device?

The people that have used that style forge mbc didnt like it and it can only raise boost to like 18psi. So if you ever want more, you cant do it
