boost control
Hey all

Just wondering how much boost control you get through the ECU?
I'm planning raising the boost by only 2 psi while the car is on the dyno and was hoping to not have to put a MBC on.

On VIII's/IX's you can't get much more, if anything, out of the completely stock boost control system. For minimal changes you could change the boost pill for one with a smaller i.d.

The factory bov on my evo 8 mr would not hold boost over 20-21 lbs. I switched to hallman mbc and forge recirc valve. Works perfect
