19099, MBC on a Stage 1????
Posted by RoboTechDSM, Apr-04-02 05:43 PM
I know....I know....I'm not supposed to get it yet until I get my IC!!! But I was just wondering, If I hook this up (and set it to stay around 5 psi ONLY, of course), will it allow me to see boost much quicker??? The people I asked said yes, just wanted to get some opinions with you guys. Some people that I know told me to get it, so long as I don't get the 'itchy turn the boost knob up' finger. Since I'm AT, I could really use the 'tad' quicker spool-up time. Thanks!!!!

beats me didn't really make much of a difference for me. I got my 1psi of boost back after the intercooler install but i don't notice it boosting any sooner.

A member here on the board, charger71, has a HRC Stage 1 and AT like me. He said that once he put on his MBC, it really made a difference in terms of spool-up time. Just wanted to see what the turbo gurus say. Thanks!!!!!

yeah.. it does spool quicker..

and I called HRC tech support to ask if it would hurt anything and he even said you'll notice a quicker spool up, as did Joe P., who I've been speaking to regarding a problem I had (ended up just being that a shop I had my car at messed with the mbc and I hit 10 psi for a second, so I took off the mbc not knowing they had adjusted it.)

anyway, call HRC tech support and ask them, they'll tell ya too
