Man, that dude with the evo in the x games just can't seem to get that jump down. At least there's more than one evo this time.

Exactly. It seems like the oring is not allowing it to fit.

Hmmm......on the flange on the UICP there should be a raised step around the inside edge.....if the o-ring pops off the outside of the raised section, they won't mate up properly. Also, they wont lock completely together. The v-band will squeeze them together all the way once it is tightened.

Ecu controlled boost is ftw holds 2-3psi more across board vs my old mbc and seems to be more responsive as well. I was running load based for months and just switched to psi based now tuning that to where I want

hmmm.. so what are you saying I should look out for? It falling off the inside edge? As of right now it doesn't look like it's seating at all.. and that may be why..

Thanks again dude..
