hallman mbc question

well dam im sorry for these new threads but you gotta start somewhere. i have a hallman mbc and i could control it from the inside of the car. i noticed its very difficult to put it to the right psi you want. do you know the correct turn clockwise and how much it will raise?? do i have to adjust the valve in the engine bay at all to get a correct readout?? please lemme know. thanx

didnt sound like he was asking which way. the hallman has arrows on it anyway...sounds like he wants to know how much to turn it....you just have to turn it a lil at a time and see how much it changes and adjust from there.

mine has been set and not changed since my last tune though, why do you want to change it?

omg

the reason why i want to change it cause my buddy was helping me pull out my turbo and he accidently touched my mbc in the engine. he threw it all out of wack. now im trying to put it back. everytime i boost in 3rd it wants to go past 1.5 bar. and the delfi gauge is showing red and it use to show blue. whenever i turn the knob counterclockwise it still goes past. i think i turned it all the way down too. what do you think i should do??

i think supposedly one full turn is supposed to be 1psi increase or decrease depending which way you turn it, but im not sure how accurate that is

best thing to do is a turn, then do a 3rd gear pull, rinse wash, and repeat until you are dialed into the boost you want
