Added Hallman Pro MBC & a boost gauge = WOW!

I finally got around to adding a Hallman Pro MBC along with the Defi D series boost gauge.

The boost comes on MUCH stronger and I love to see the dial of the boost gauge shoot up to 20psi so quickly...

At night, the Defi D White Face matches the stock dashboard very nicely...

Car feels like a new beast...

Yeah, I've heard those Defi gauges add a ton of HP!

I believe he was being sarcastic. If you were too then on me.

Yeah, and I've also heard that folks who post mostly negative stuff on forums have issues with breast-feeding when they were little children...

I don't know you, yet you put me down dude...pretty sad life you must live. I bet you are a "little" man in real life who needs to justify his manhood by putting down others on a car forum...I have seen you post elsewhere and put others down, but I think, maybe he has something against them, but now, I know, you are an EQUAL OPPORTUNITY jerk, congratulations!


Anyways...on a more positive note...

As for those who are sitting on the fence regarding getting an MBC, it's one of the best bangs for the buck. There is a noticeable difference in boost. Especially in my situation which I already have tuned the car with intake and full exhaust...the increase in onset of boost makes the car feel totally new and different. I love mods that do that...

For the record: The boost gauge was FOR the MBC, not the other way around as some "gods" on this itnernet forum think otherwise...

Plokivos: Thanks for getting my back. I appreciate it even though, to me, life is too meaningful to allow people like Warrtalon bother me for long...

Wow, sorry, I didn't know you wore panties. I wasn't being mean at all...I was just being funny. Had I known it would cause such a visceral reaction, I would have refrained. Next time, take a closer look at the person's sig, and maybe you'll notice something to help you out. I have the same MBC and love it...I've used Hallman for years on DSMs and agree with everything you said.

The only problem here at the end, though, is that you think people are sitting on the fence wondering if an MBC is helpful...well, they're not. Everyone knows the MBC is a great mod that can provide a noticeable increase in HP without any additional tuning, especially on 03/04s. As long as they know to get the boost gauge at the same time, they're golden. It's better to get a boost gauge before intake and exhaust like you did, though, because those both can affect boost levels.

If my tiny comment that wasn't demeaning at all bothered you this much, then perhaps you do need some "me" time to sort things out...

Great MO Warrtalon,

When someone calls you out for your comments, you send another comment their way accusing them of being a "pansy" and then try to dissect their statements so that you always wind up on top...I guess you ALWAYS need to be on top huh?

IF you did not mean what you said, all you have to do is APOLOGIZE. BUT judging by your past dealings with others, Warrtalon does NOT apologize. Even if you did not mean what you said, look at the multiple posts after that. You think they were funny too?

Look at Plokivos comment. Word of enlightenment for you...sarcasm is not always funny, especially when they are text on computer screen and can be misconstrued for something else. I don't know you and yet you already start off by making a questionable comment like you did AND then you think others should act accordingly and laugh along with you?

Puhleaze...stop backpedaling to make yourself look good. But if you want to step on me some more with you rebuttals that's fine because all it does is still show your insecurities...

If you are the "big" man that you are...try apologizing...its good for the soul...
