alright i just got my mbc and i heard that putting a mbc on my stock t-25 wouldnt do anything because its already maxed out. Is this true? thanks

 

well, that would depend on how much boost you are currently running. but i doubt you have maxed it out yet.

 

well whatever the stock setting is what im running.

 

its different in every GST/GSX. you need to have an aftermarket boost gauge hookup to accurately see how much psi you are running.

 

anyplace on the intake manifold that you can hook up a vacuum line will be adequate for a boost gauge.

 

yea about that....i dont feel like spending 150$ on an electric one and mechanical ones are like 50$ so would it be ok just to get a mechanical one? and how do you hook them up if i get one? thanks

 

Getting a boost controler with out a boost gauge is the stupidity at its finest. A boost gauge at auto zone will go for 60 bucks, faze i think, Then all you need is a place to mout it, there is a way to put in in your door vent, and its pretty cool looking for dam near free. Ill throw the diy up if i can find it

 

hell yea that diy would be sweet! Autozone is were i was planning on getting one. They are faze. I used to work there and still get 20% discount. Im thinking i just run it off of the middle throttle body line correct me if im wrong.

 

http://www.2g nt.com/www/corbin/boost.html for the link to work your going to have to remove the space between the 2g and nt. the dircetions are pretty simple and personally i think it looks pretty good. Only bad thing is that you can no longer have heat or ac to that area.

 

NO offense but buying a boost controller without a boost guage really is not a good idea and is an easy way to break something. But no your turbo is not maxed out my guess is youll be running between 10-12 PSI stock and I have seen some 2Gers running as high as 16 on stock fuel. an extra 4-6PSI will make a difference but shortly after that you are pushing the turbo behond it efficientcy range and it will just be nothing more than a hair drier. thats when the 16G upgrade comes into play ...or even a 14B if you only want a minor adjustment but to me that is a waiste of time.
