Why are you looking at boost controllers bud? You aren't even chipped. Seriously you need to get that gauge working first and figure out what your problem is with the stock boost (if there really is a problem still...you will not always run 14.5 PSI).

Seriously, you and a boost controller = BOOM. I am only saying this from my reading and experience with you and your other issues.

Alot on here don't like the B/S MBC's but I have absolutely no issues with mine. In the TT or my old Eclipse. This was ran on the small stocker T25 and I also ran it on my Big T28 turbo I upgraded to. The T25 is similiar size to the K04. Most have had luck with Cincy's recommendation of the TurboXS. He says he is not getting a kickback but I don't believe him. Here is a link to mine......

As I stated in other posts I don't have the WOT issues or the "wham bam" instant boost. I do spool up alot faster however. I get to my boost quickly and then taper down between 11-15 depending on load.

Plus dude look at the first one......it is a bleeder the one you listed is a combo B/S with a bleeder.

who cares what people say 01TT225Q... Its not like we are here to buy things for you so it doesnt really matter if cincy says B/S's arent a good match or whatever...

i have the turboxs mbc and have never had a problem with it besides when one of the hoses slipped off... other then that its been good...

i have also heard good things about those hallmans which mobius posted, however obviously i have no experience with them...

good luck

Hey.... I'm not chipped, you have a problem with that?!

Mobius, is that a steel ball, or ceramic? Considering getting a steel ball just out of curiosity. I want to see what exactly the differences would be.

It's a steel ball and the thing is rock solid. I run the older ES model.

One thing I just want to point out is that I really really Appreciate everyone's ALOT. If i have been bothersome or a smart *** I didnt mean to an greatly apologize. Were all here for mostly the same reasons...just some fun and good information....with that said... Waht is the usual boost set at with the turboxs and being chipped...22? 24?

Yeah, mine being ceramic isn't super steady. Otherwise, love the controller. Set it, and it stays where you put it, no set screws needed. Just put out an email to Hallman for a steel ball.


BTW, I have the Pro RX controller.
