i just got my hallman mbc today, i was wondering if i can install it myself and be ok? i know you have to have a tbe [which i have] and a intake [or drop in]. my question is should i just wait to get my tune by turbotrix [who seem VERY busy and who knows when ill get a flash] or can i just install it myself and have fun? thanks guys!

and i searched

 

well.. I installed mine BEFORE my tune and I was actually running just about right as far as lean/richness...

I set it to 19 lbs though..

After the custom tune, I am running 22 and it's just perfect.

So, I think you'll be just fine, just set it 1 or 2 lbs under stock.

 

1 or 2 lbs under stock? isn't the purpose of the mbc to raise boost?

 

Yeah, I think he meant the other way.

 

Not sure why you're so worried about installing the MBC. You should have asked this question when you installed the intake for no reason. That's the part that is hurting you without a flash. The MBC can be added with or without a flash, exhaust, or intake. Set it at 20-21psi and be done.

 

you do have a boost gauge and fuel pump right??

 

+1

Get the fuel pump before your tune. dont install the MBC unless you have a boost gauge.
