well i hooked up like this https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...chmentid=21291 and im still only hitting 10-11psi, i put caps on the stock solenoid, intake, turbo, then connected wastegate to the side part of the mbc and then T inbetween the bov and intake manifold which is connected to the straight part of the mbc, anyone have any clues i connected all the zip ties and everything i checked before i installed all this stuff and i was boosting about 18ish not it doesnt get past 10 at all???
Yeah, I did the exact same thing about a month ago on my car. I hooked up my mbc, then I went out to get my friends some hamburgers and fries and it was only hitting 11psi and I was like "WTF" I fixed it by cranking it up some. I knew the connections were tight and nothing was leaking so I just turned the dial (i forget which way) - It took quite a few turns to get it to come on, I noticed a difference after I started turning it because I saw it go to 13psi, and this was better. So I said "Fu*k this, I'm going to just turn it alot. I went out for a run and the needle shot way up like to 20psi!..so I pulled my right foot off the throttle so fast it almost went through the roof lol. Then I played with the dial a little more, got it to go to 18 safely, then dialed it up just a lil more till she was hitting a solid 20. This was about 2 days before I was tuned by AMS. The next few days past and she drove fine set at 20psi, until Chris at AMS turned me up to 23psi, and thats where shes been since I've been tuned.
MY mbs is the hallman plain looking cheapo one. They shipped it from ETS and it was really in a super conservative setting from those guys.

my car has only been boosting 11psi, but i was told if i was to put a MBC in it might fix the problem, but nope no matter how much i turn the boost controller the boost does not go up, can anyone help me....
Did you remove the factory boost/vacuum hose assembly in its entirety and connect your MBC with new 4mm vacuum hose? You can't reuse the factory hoses with your MBC.
Got my Buschur MBC yesterday. Simple enuf, I disconnected the stock lines running from the WGA and the turbine to the the Solenoid. Then i connected the hoses (came with the MBC) to the WGA and the turbine and in between them was the MBC.
Did a pull and it went all the way to 30 PSI!! Plan B- Used the T where the line for the BOV was and then closed the Turbo nipple. MBC turned all the way out, did another pull, Boost hits up again to 30 PSI... so i just put the car back in the garage and here i am asking for help!!
Any ideas??
And yes, i used an extra hose that i had and attached both its ends to the stock solenoid. (just to cap it)

When you say turbine, you really mean compressor housing discharge tube, whch is that black sheetmetal "J" tube on the end of the compressor housing outlet, right? Did you cap off the nipple on the factory MAF/inlet hose? Did you leave the factory boost solenoid electrical connector plugged in? You should have.
