As the title says...I just installed a Forge UNOS MBC!!! I ran the lines from the WGA and t'd into the BOV...

it feels GREAT! steady boost at 21psi all the way to redline!!! the power gain is amazing!

the install was striaght forward...ill sum it up in some simple steps...
step1- take off upper ic pipe and intake(unplug MAF).
step2- remove all stock vacuum lines.
step3- cap the nipples on the boost control solenoid(BCS), intake, and compressor outlet.
step4- connect new vacuum line from wastegate actuator(WGA) to side nipple on MBC, "T" the vacuum connection on the BOV and run a line to the bottom nipple on the MBC.
step5- find a place to mount the mbc. I mounted mine on a bolt that holds the fan to radiator.
step6- take it out for a spin and re-adjust the mbc to your desired boost level.
step7- ENJOY!

and for people confused with how i installed it i made a before and after pic...

happy boosting!!!

I do have a question though...
how many "clicks" = 1psi of boost?

 

Congrats! Time for a tune now =-)


usually 3-4 clicks is a pound... Varies a little... Just slowly turn it up until you have an idea how its reacting.

Cheers!

 

yeah i need to tune...i did a stock tune to squeeze some power out of her...but its not enough...i want more! lol...ill do a self tune with a friend tomorrow night...

 

I forgot to mention that I got the MBC from AwdMotorsports for $75.00 SHIPPED! It was a great deal!!!

 

Nice writeup.. Thanks for the good feedback also!!

 

does anyone know the exact amount of boost that is gained by one "click"?

 

I dont think anyone has a gauge sensitive enough to register 1 click.. it would have to be datalogged to get close.. Easiest way might be 5-10 clicks and then break it down per click when you see it register on the gauge

 

sounds like something i should try...lol...thanks mike!

 

i am thinking about getting this mbc, how do you like it so far? would you recommend it?

 

Thanks man, your little diagram helped me install my UNOS just now with the full Injen kit....

God that was a 6 hour project.... ran all new vaccum lines, a brand new full Injen kit in black, a ForgeRS recirc BOV all in black.

PHEW...

 

Good info!

 

Awesome!

 

FORGE UNOS MBC is good stuff!!! 2 of my friends are running this mbc...im gonna convince 2 more to get it...nothing but good when installing this mbc!
