yeh, when you took your mbc off, you set your car back to stock boost level, 10 psi.

since i'm thinking you took the boost solenoid out with the restrictor pills in it, only way to get that back is to have the mbc again.

How the hell do you blow a rod?

Do you still use the stock airbox with the stock intake snorkel? If so, is the snorkel fastened down to the bumper? If not, this is your whistling sound. If you don't have the stock airbox, then it's probably a boost leak...

As for the 10psi, that's not turbo lag, man, that's an improper boost control setup. You don't have to have the MBC installed in order to get proper boost as long as you have the original, stock vaccuum lines in place and installed properly. If you don't still have the stock lines with the pills, then install the MBC as soon as you can. If the stock vaccuum lines ARE in place, then they probably just got re-installed incorrectly.

you are for sure losing boost because of those little "pills" that go in the stock hoses from the boost solenoid. Just put your MBC back in and it should take care of things
