Anyone have an install guide for MBC in parellel? Must be idiot proof. Also, MBC + APR ok? - Page 3

Underboosting is what caused my limp when Piggie put in XR. Maybe this fellow has the MBC set too low. Otherwise, boost ramp up.

I had limp from overboost with K03's/X before I got the TCD. Sucka.

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

Mike2kS4 · 05-02-2005, 04:57 PM

I still get it with the TCD installed with upgraded turbos, if I hadn't had the N75 d/c'd I'd be in constant +dev limp.

+ dev limp is what you get for the ramp up limp btw.

but if all you're trying to do is flatten the curve a bit, it should be ok. In my experience adding boost with APR software is the main issue. Thats why I don't run their sauce....X all the way, man. Good luck.
