In the How To section. It's pretty easy. Just PM me if you get into it and have problems.

I installed the hallman pro with incockpit controll not to long ago. You may want to check but i believe the best place to drill the control line is right underneath the either the brake line or the acclerator.. cannot remeber which one .. It was a pain in the *** but not that hard and pretty brainless install. For high boost applications like with the evo, most people are advising to put the T in between the intake manifold and the BOV.. so the little line next to the bov is fine, and the other tube goes to the waste gate actuator. you should mount it to the bolt on the radiator.. pretty easy.

Personally, I bought a Joe P MBC for my DSM and it took a while for me to realize it wasn't working quite well. It would never allow above 15 psi, but I didn't notice for a few months because it wasn't for a while that I needed to turn the boost up higher than that. Perhaps the spring or ball was locked in place or something. Then I bought a Dejon tool MBC and it worked great.

Joe is a great guy though, it might have just been bad luck on my part.

Is it really necessary to drill? I haven't done it yet w/ my Evo, but in my DSM I simply poked a hole in the steering column boot and ran it through that. Not possible w/ Evo?

I would suggest hooking the vac lines for the Hallman to the waste gate and turbo nipples, I had less than satisfactory performance when I had mine hooked up the other way.

What do you mean? The "out" line from the MBC should go to the wastegate actuator the "in" line should come from the tee which goes between the intake manifold and the BOV. The intake manifold is arguably the best pressure source. Are you saying the "in" line for the MBC came from the turbo nipple? I know the BCS uses it, but I didn't think this would work as well for an MBC.

This has been the best method for me man, others have said to have success with the T off the diverter valve method but it was nothing but headaches for me.
