My target boost will only be around factory levels, not planning going higher than 1.2bar.

Any thoughts?

I switched from a GTS Chris MBC to an AVCR, and the difference is huge.The best gain is allowing full control of when the boost comes in and how hard, something you cant adjust with an MBC

I already have an MBC I found lying in the car, not sure what make is it.
I really don't want to spend too much£££ if an MBC would suffice for my use.
Just a bit doubtful since I heard baaaaaaaaaad things about using an MBC such as you will blow your turbo etc etc
@ sheppy
: Would I even need a Fuel Cut Defender(sp?) if I am not planning to go for massive boost levels? At the moment I don't think I am even anywhere close to factory boost limit.
sheppy wrote:what's your engine?? rev3?? fuel cut is 17psi(iirc) so you wouldn't need one if you we're running under that, i think the s-bits FCD only goes to 17psi anyway, so it'd be pointless lol, if you want this MBC hooked up and VSV disabled though i can help with that![]()

NEVER fit mbc with out an accurate boost gauge its the most important thing ive ever fitted to my car.
buy a guage and wind mbc right in so its at lowest setting, then repeat on an air feild prefereable untill correct boost setting is reached

+1, it's a bit of a pain but once it's done you won't need to do it again, i set mine t 1 bar and haven't touched it since!!
