I recently acquired the Gizzmo EBC. Lots of funtions, can handle up to 3.5 bar pressure, small in size and all the great features we need from a good ebc...

Haven't found time to install it but i will do it pretty soon and i will def post a review...

my point was that an MBC is good enough. A good EBC should be able to dial in any curve, but i'm really only familiar with stock boost control. i can adjust max wastegate duty cycle to manually set the curve.

This was on pump gas. He can hold more than 22psi by letting it spike in midrange, which is what the race gas setting is for. It was a stock 8 turbo with a 10.5 hotside.
