just ordered a hallman pro manual boost controller. this is the first performance mod on my new 05 evo...i hope it will hold 20 psi of boost all the way to redline.

 

oh it will turbotrix uses the hallman on their 9 second evo....that boost controller is very good!! nice choice

 

hey congrats man.. you should look into a Turbo Back exhaust, and an intake, and some type of reflash... ( dynoflash, vishnu, turbotrix ... ) whatever is yoru choice...

I want to do an MBC, but i live in Pittsburgh and with the weather changing all the time idk if its even wroth it cause i belive you have to alter the setting of it depending on outside temp....

but hey sick mod... welcome to the world of modding... say bye bye warrenty

 

I have it on mine, it' holds 22psi to redline on mine.

 

glad to hear it works well .. i will post some info when i get it installed..

 

het steveevo8 ,say bye bye warranty,,hmmm i never purchased the warranty in the first place.

 

i read that its recommended to have an aftermarket bov and exhaust if you are planning to use a mbc. is that true?

 

i would not think you need a aftermarket bov and exhaust to use a mbc...all a boost controller does is hold boost pressure at a certain setting..

 

just read the thred and ive noticed on my car the bost goes away after 5,500 rpm. will the bost controler fix this?is that safe with no other mods? always wanted to ask and this just seemed to be a good time. how much did you pay for the part, i think i need one

 

the boost does taper after about 5500 rpm's, a manual boost controller will hold the boost all the way to redlline . stock boost is 20 psi on the 05 evos, so adjust the knob on the mbc until you hit 20 psi and your done....will hold 20 psi to redline..al from dynoflash.com is selling them for 89.99 shipped until i think 12/30..check his posts on this site.

 

this wont hurt the otherwise stock car holding 20 psi all the way to 7,000?

 

first off its so cake to install u can take it off in less them 30 min if u have warrenty issues second i live in colorado and it has gron from below 30 deg to above 60 almost every other day for the last 2 weeks and mine hasent changed more then like 1 psi so run it at like 19 when winter comes and ur money. i did have an aftermarket BOV and exhaust the same time i got mine but i put the MBC on b4 the exhuast it was only about a day apart but it was fine with the stock exhaust and stock bov..... think its just a recomendation if u need help with the install shoot me a pm

are you guys kidding me? what good is the MBC without knowing what your boost level is. get a boost gauge first.

 

ahhh well my b i made a bad assumption... i thought you might of... if i knew how gay mitsu was i woudlnt' of got one with it

 

Congrats... My first mod was a shorter antenna to avoid hitting the wing with the trunk open. My friend has a spot on his wing where his antenna hit...

Anyway, I'm still looking a for a stealthy, affordable solution with the gauges. No sense in tinkering with boost if you have no way to monitor it.

Another thing to think about is planning out your MODS... Let's say you go the Vishnu route... The Xede has boost control capabilities and money you invested into MBC kind of goes to waste. So yeah, a little planning helps out in the long run... Which is why I haven't done anything yet... Anyway, good luck and enjoy your new car.
