Default Re: pros and cons of your boost controller

-Hallman Pro MBC-

Pros:
-Fairly Cheap (~$100)
-Easy Install
-Works

Cons:
-Have to pull over and pop the hood to adjust
-Boost fluctuates constantly when the temp changes (here in Michigan) and I never actually have a constant boost setting for more than half a day.
-Have experienced a few boost spikes
-Have to estimate boost adjustment ("half a twist" sometimes nets 1 psi, sometimes half a psi, sometimes almost 2 psi)
-Doesn't add any flashy electronics to the interior



Overall I've about had it with MBC's. Have my sights set on the Apexi AVC-R.
