As of right now, vacuum line will not be included for the current price. The price will go up slightly if we include vacuum line.

Ok, folks, I'm not keeping a running tab of screen names. You will need to contact me via telephone and provide me with your information.

Mike@forge,

I installed the MBC today, it is great, I did have to put the softer spring in to be able to set it. My question is, I think i am hitting fuel cut at 1.4 kg/cm? That shouldn't be happening?

A little info about my car, RNR SS intercooler hard piping, 3" high flow cat, 3" exhaust, HKS SSQBV, and K&N.

Fuel cut is based on the tuning of the stock ECU or the range of the fuel system. The boost controller only turns up the boost. It doesn't create fuel cut.

I installed it the way Mike recommended . . . pressure reference from the turbo . . . and all is well

It would have been nice if some vacuum hose was included but it wasn't a big deal to run to Pep Boys and get the additional hose I needed.

Ic, well I am getting some sort of cut off of boost. I will be at full throtte and it will suddenly it will jerk, and shut off. It doesn't do it all the time but pretty often.

That's fuel cut then.

It's plainly obvious when it happens. It's actually quite disturbing how hard the car jerks when it happens too.

The only way around it is a tune/reflash that removes it, raises it, or a fuel system that is not maxed out.

In all likelihood, you need a tune/reflash, because if it was your fuel system, you would be experiencing knock and the motor could be damaged consequently, so I'm almost positive it's just your tuning.

You will just need to run lower boost until you get it taken care of.

What psi are you hitting? Did you have a MBC installed previously, if so was it set the same?

Mike, when are you expected to have the black available?
