Dissapointing 14.5 @ 90.8mph
Yeah it was your post! LOL!!! Yeah I know how the fasteners work but I stripped mine and just ripped em out - I think I will put it back in ... But yeah I havent heard to many good things about this Turbo XS MBC (its not the High performance on either) ... Yes my boost is set HIGH because of it tapering so much - Figure I'd make up for it hahaha ... Thanks for your info though!
Might just have to order a hallman!

****ty mbc, I used to have the same one, now I have the hallman RX evo and it holds 21psi till 7k and tapers like 2psi past that. My turboxs tapered and ran like ****. Also you are prolly runnin rich because of your bov.

Anyway here are my mods:
04 EVO
Turbo XS MBC
Greddy Type RS
5Zigen Miracle Fireball Catback Exhaust
RRE Rally Cat
Defi BF Boost Gauge for reading my boost.
Reaction: .381
60ft: 1.999
ET: 14.537
MPH: 90.869
This was @ LACR in Palmdale (www.lacr.net) so according to there calculations based on altitude I ran a 14.037 ... I know I could of worked on the 60ft a little better... On my first run I heard something leaking and 4th gear would hold boost @ 1.0 BAR... I attributed it to my snorkel and removed it .. it did better but still 90MPH? Come on! I should be trapping near 95+
The stock 05 (albiet the 10.5 hotside) even had a higher mph than me and he was pulling on me! I think perhaps its a leak - any insight?
I can peak @ 1.4-1.6 bar but it always tapers down to 1.1-1.25 .. Comments/Suggestions/Opinions? HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LACR seems to be a very slow track. I have been there many times and the fastest stock evo I have ever witnesses was a 05' mr with a 13.7, fastest stock sti 13.8. I was there Wed and 3 sti's put up a best time of 14.5 with many passes in the 15's the only other evo there ran 14.2 with full exhaust, mbc, intake. Oh, it was windy like always almost right in your face. Your times were slow my guess is the snorkel, you were getting poor air flow. Just felt like piping in.
