Postby SR86RD » Fri Jun 07, 2013 5:26 am

i have heard good things on the hallman ones but i wanted options to choose so, any turbo geeks around with experiences with different brands of manual boost controllers?

Had a hallman on my celiac sometime ago and it worked great. From what I have seen, they all work good, be it, hallman or any of the eBay pieces

I ran this one on my AW11. Worked fine.

I agree with Evo for the most part but I wouldn't go too cheap just because if it fails it could be very bad. They are very simple devices though.

Just make sure you use a ball & spring boost controller.

They are better than any other type of mbc there is. Keeping the wastegate shut until boost treshold is reached, which then overcomes the spring and let's boost bleed off.
This provides best possible spool an mbc can provide. I have run ATS racing mbc for years with no problems. Boost rises quick and stays dead even on what i've set it to.
twos R us Mbc also works fine. Both are aroung 50 bucks.
