Why pay the cash when you could make your own controller. Then I tell you to look into a Bypass valve instead. IF setup right the BPV will help you keep the turbo spooled up after shift. I know I told someone on here how to make a MBC for like $15. do some digging on the net that is where I found my info. If you run a BOV on a stock setup when the BOV opens it will let metered air out so you'll have a rich spike and I've heard about idle problems. You do what you want though.

no.way.

If you want boost, just bypass the BCS with a length of vacuum line, more boost faster.

That bell outlet on that BOV unscrews and you can stick a threaded piece of pipe on there and make it a BPV.

What quality of stuff do you think you're getting for a whole $18?  Seriously.
