I never own a Honda, and I never will. Moreover, I hate Honda.

I was j/k. Maybe I should said to be more politically correct a 13 sec car is super fast only if you used to driving 100hp 4 cylinder economy cars.

Now that's much clearer for me to understand, cuz my English sucks, so I didn't get your joke. LOL

Mid 12s is pretty quick for a stock car for around 25K (most 06 MRs). There really is nothing better than smoking BMWs that cost 2-3x the price. (my 06 MR with 17k cost 22k and my friends 09 335xi w/ thier auto manual b/s was 60k and beat him by two car lengths easy). and not sure if this is common place but lined up with an 08 M3 (at the track of course) and he ran 14.2 (couldnt get traction) while i was in the 13.5-13.7s all night.

Anyway I had to ask because I have heard so many good things about the ecu controlling boost, what is the advantage of the mbc and how does it work in conjunction with the ? why is it such a mush have with a stock turbo?

Question

Bump*

Anyway I had to ask because I have heard so many good things about the ecu controlling boost, what is the advantage of the mbc and how does it work in conjunction with the ecu? why is it such a must have with a stock turbo? and can't tuning the ecu fix some of the boost characteristics.
