He said it happened when rolling onto throttle as I understand it....

Anyone have an install guide for MBC in parellel? Must be idiot proof. Also, MBC + APR ok? - VandyS4 2005-05-02 16:14:38 (555 views)

Uh oh, here we go! Just wait for my DIY, it'll be coming in the next few days... - DocWyte 2005-05-02 21:33:19 (420 views)

No way, are you serious? - VandyS4 2005-05-02 22:26:40 (445 views)

Yep, gotta control the boost spikes when I go WOT in the higher gears... - DocWyte 2005-05-03 06:02:42 (450 views)

Here ya go. Ignore the pressure gauge. - VonK :: Indukted 2005-05-02 17:56:03 (1689 views)

These two pics really helped me when I did mine... - Dr. Jekyll 2005-05-02 16:38:27 (588 views)

I was unable to get MBC only to work with AMS stage1 reliably... - burningcoals 2005-05-02 16:25:51 (473 views)

TCD. - Mike2kS4@PEB 2005-05-02 16:26:42 (397 views)

Hmm will TCD work with AMS? I was told different. - burningcoals 2005-05-02 16:27:35 (387 views)

I haven't seen anything to the contrary. - Mike2kS4@PEB 2005-05-02 16:33:03 (381 views)

If it tapers too much up top, 1 bar TCD could be too high and not eliminate TC? - DocSlow (Mini P!g) 2005-05-02 16:35:10 (419 views)

Tapers similar to X chip in my experience - DarinS4Turbo 2005-05-02 18:12:10 (380 views)

Post a boost log of your AMS. - DocSlow (Mini P!g) 2005-05-02 16:28:46 (393 views)

Nope, won't change the fact that he is ramping up too quick. - DocSlow (Mini P!g) 2005-05-02 16:27:25 (422 views)

I thought the ramp-up was pretty similar to X, no? - Mike2kS4@PEB 2005-05-02 16:32:28 (373 views)

Don't know, but unimportant. AMS must be less "understanding" when it sees any monkey business. - DocSlow (Mini P!g) 2005-05-02 16:33:59 (495 views)

Hmmm, any proof of this? - Mike2kS4@PEB 2005-05-02 16:39:08 (466 views)

No proof of my statement or yours. The fact remains he went limp.... - DocSlow (Mini P!g) 2005-05-02 16:42:18 (378 views)

Why not spend the 20 bucks on a TCD and give it a shot? - Mike2kS4@PEB 2005-05-02 16:43:54 (418 views)

Limp from overboosting? Yeah, that's common. :-/ - DocSlow (Mini P!g) 2005-05-02 16:46:20 (414 views)

Yes, it is... actually. - Mike2kS4@PEB 2005-05-02 16:51:24 (425 views)

Midge, I got it CONSTANTLY with the X. I had to put in the tcd... - Mike2kS4@PEB 2005-05-02 16:57:12 (486 views)

I guess your car hates you. $10 says TCD won't solve AMS boy's problem ;-) - DocSlow (Mini P!g) 2005-05-02 16:58:08 (386 views)

Haha... I'd bet you, but collecting from your poor ass would be too difficult. - Mike2kS4@PEB 2005-05-02 16:59:49 (397 views)

yarr... - VandyS4 2005-05-02 16:28:03 (471 views)

MBC in parallel will work fine, though. - DocSlow (Mini P!g) 2005-05-02 16:29:11 (449 views)

i think thats all he wants to do anyways.... - BASELINE 2005-05-02 19:16:25 (390 views)

MBC only works best with GIAC, no doubt. MBC in parallel should work with all of them. - DocSlow (Mini P!g) 2005-05-02 16:23:15 (547 views)

Nothing better than what's out there already... - Mike2kS4@PEB 2005-05-02 16:18:24 (501 views)

what are you trying to do? - BASELINE 2005-05-02 16:18:16 (425 views)

Just prevent boost spikes. - VandyS4 2005-05-02 16:26:21 (372 views)

you shouldn't have too much of a boost spike on your setup. - BASELINE 2005-05-02 19:13:29 (457 views)
