MBC question here.
I just installed the Buschur inline MBC.(connected between intake mainfold/BOV and Wastegate)(set it with 3rd gear pulls). I cranked it up, but initially boost plateaus at 14 PSI, then it slowly peaks to 21 psi and is held there. My question is: Is it normal for this first plateau at 14 psi to happen or do I have a leak or something (could it be hooked up wrong?) Thanks in advance!!
BTW, the supporting mods are : (BR350 plus some extra fun stuff)
[ul][*]BR 2.5" Mandrel Bent Stainless Steel Downpipe[*]BR 3" Mandrel Bent Stainless Steel Catback Exhaust[*]BR Air Filter Kit[*]Oil Pan Heat Shield[*]BR Polished Exhaust Manifold Heatshield[*]BR Spark Plug Cover[*]BR 2.5" Upper Intercooler Pipe w/ stock BOV[*]BR Mini Battery Kit[*]Ported Exhaust Manifold[*]Ported Turbine Housing[*]Ported 02 Housing[*]3" testpipe[*]autometer 30-0-30 boost guage

RE: MBC question here.
i agree with mike. There is no way you should have boost creep with just those mods. One of the first things i would try is to not tap off the BOV line but go off of the FPR line and see if that helps. Also make sure the MBC is not hooked up backwards.

OK I was just being a panzy. Apparently, I didn't have it turned up enough. I just cranked it up and it works great. Another great product from Buschur!!! It holds right where I want it at 21 psi!!! Thanks for the help!!

RE: MBC question here.
im surprised the stock BOV is actually holding that too. Because that thing will leak like a bastard. I think that would be the next thing to upgrade. Assuming this is the evo VIII with the plastic one
