Default That diagram is intended to assist in initial boost spike control.

Otherwise referred to as installed in "parallel".

The "other" way would be to leave your N75 connected electrically, and run the boost lines through the boost controller. This way, you'll need to have the boost level set real close to what the ECU is requesting, and this will change dependant on the ambient air temperature, which makes it real hard to keep effective.

Another problem with that is, everyone will have the devil on one shoulder saying "crank it up, dude!". ;-P

Default I just installed my mbc in parallel to the n75 exactly according to the diagram you posted

But like Mat said below, I only did it to control the initial boost spikes I was seeing.
