$30 for an MBC is great, but I have seen where one guy had to get rid of his TurboXS and replace it with a Hallman, since it wasn't providing good boost control. I don't know if it was an anomaly or if the TurboXS MBC isn't that great. $30 is a great price, though.

$30 bucks or not, them beeetches wont hold the boost on our cars. Spend the money and get the proven over and over again hallman, have seen many guys switch from txs to hallman.

If it's not holding boost, it's not the boost controller, it's your BOV or your car is leaking somewhere. I have the HPmbc and it works great.

To those of you who talk down on the TurboXS MBC... I have the TurboXS HP MBC... it holding 30psi just fine... so well that the tapering occurs amazingly slow compared to other evo's.
