Default That is the worst suggestion ever. Don't band-aid the problem, fix it.

See if you can find another N75 to try, and check the hoses that go from the N75 to the wastegate actuators for a leak.

A friend here had similar overboost / throttle cut issues and it turned out to be his N75.

Default or a broken plastic tee in the hoses to the wastegates?

One of those tees was broken when I bought my car.

Default Yep, either hoses from manifold to N75, or hoses between N75 and wastegate..

Or the N75 Valve, or wastegate actuator(s), or the actual wastegate(s).

Default is this pretty much everyone's mbox experience with giac?

I'm curious cause I hear about TC all day long, and not enough non-horror stories, I'd hate to get the impression that everyone with m-box has TC and is unhappy with GIAC, and then later find its out its just the product of people complaining more often than they rave about a product(the norm on a forum).

It's a pretty common problem, more than just M box cars.

Default LOL! Try knowing some background infro about someone before you respond.

This guy has complained since day 1 about TC with GIAC even though his other software didn't cause it.

Thanks for the asshat reply, though. I suggest you take into consideration who you are responding to in the future. Of course, I'm not going to tell someone to add an MBC if one day out fo the blue they just happen to get TC.
