TurboXS MBC questions

sorry for my incompetance, but I have only had my EVO for a week now and I come from the Volkswagen world where you really cannot run a boost controller, mostly just a full ecu flash...

my questions are is it worth installing this (I found it new in the box when I moved out of my old place, no idea where I got it, but probably picked it up at a sale awhile back because it was cheap or something)...and about where does the stock 05 RS boost to stock and where would it be safe to set this...

thanks in advance for any help...god knows I need it.

I will only tell you NOT to use that MBC. Sell it and get a Hallman Pro or Forge UNOS - that one is awful on the Evo.

The other two questions I will not answer, because you have not searched, and they are incredibly basic and simply questions that have been answered a few thousands times.

get rid of the mbc. it causes boost spikes and is inconsistant in holding boost.
