this topic has been asked a thousand times... did you search
but here is my input

I had a forge and it used to spike a bit! but it did the job.
Now i have HKS EVC 6 and love it!
i can hold more boost to redline.
hi low boost setting etc, i think if you go with a EBC you must get one that is rpm's based, that way you can eliminate taper even more

but then again it 7 times the price of the MBC!

they both work well
all depends on your pocket suppose!

Well I started this post so I can get my post up cause I'm trying to buy from the sale ads. I'm just thinking of questions I could ask everyone their opinons on since I have to have 50 post before I be able to post in the for sale ads.

I have both EBC and MBC. EBC came out of my previous vehicle and I have a turbo xs MBC in the car now. I want to switch but want to know which is better to use.

I like the MBC better. Not to crazy about the Turbo XS ones but they do the trick. I would recommend a Hallman Pro Rx or the HKS EBC. They are both good.

I want to push enough boost that the stock turbo can hold. Not extreme till I upgrade.
