In the pics I noticed you are running a manual boost controller still. Doesent the AEM EMS have boost controlling abilities? If it does what makes you use the MBC over using the AEM EMS or even a good EBC?

Absolutely we are running our manual controller. Is there something else?
I haven't tried to the AEM EMS to control boost, no desire to take hours of messing with something just to have MAYBE the same results in the end that I do already with a manual. A GOOD manual controller will spool as fast as any electronic controller I have ever seen.
I HATE electronic boost controllers. Every manufacture has something different, each one take longer than the last one to figure out how to use, gain buttons, scramble buttons, 1 setting, two settings, overtake BLAH BLAH BLAH. I hate them. I don't have time to read the manual on each one and charge some poor customer for hours of messing with it.
Honestly, if a car come into the shop with an electronic controller on it and WE have to set the boost for tuning...it gets unplugged, a manual controller goes on, we set the boost and do the tuning. We then let the customer know what boost level we ran the car at and that is where we recommend he sets the boost controller up.
There was one excellent electronic boost controller in my opinion. The HKS EVC EZ, the first one. Had one knob on it, turn it up or turn it down. Worked perfectly, it has been replaced now with a version 2, has one for low boost one for high boost. Works very good too and there is no confusing screens, settings, offsets etc.
Did I say I don't like electronic boost controllers?
