Default Yep, it works well. Installed it myself, very easy.

It's worth the 300 dollah, no problem.

Default You don't have any problems at part throttle?

With the boost becoming unstable? Ie try to hold 10PSI all the way to redline by modulating the throttle. Can you do this or does boost become realy unstable?

Default Absolutely no part throttle funnyness, or I would have taken it out and put it on Ebay :)

Part throttle is perfectly fine

Default MBC will give you 90% of what the EBC will give you while saving you money and time.

I'd say go MBC unless you feel comfortable programming it yourself, which I highly doubt (no offense). If you are getting it for Simpply or someone else to program on your car, screw it. It would suck to have to go back to whomever is programming it for you so changes can be made. Bottom line, it'll take constant tweaking as you find yourself driving in different situations.

Just my 1 cent...

Default I guess I will get the profec b spec II that way i can control the

boost more accurately and from inside the car instead of poping the hood. The AVC-R is cool because you can control the boost curve.

Default hmmm bummer, I really liked the AVC-R, but couldn't get it to play nicely with my car

I know others have had problems, I wonder why some do and some do not.
