Gotchya. Same reasoning behind homebrew going higher than the 17-18psi that...
the K03 (GIAC) chip requests, right? TCD set at only 1bar keeps the system working for more boost.

Are you sure? A CEL will be thrown if you disconnect it electronically but if you leave it...
electronically plugged in and just remove it from the boost loop just like other setups maybe that would work.

SwankS4 is right. Leave it electrically connected & there's no issue running MBC only
Though as lemieux was saying, the stock software may be less tolerant to +/- boost deviations. Not sure about that, though.

Don't touch those solenoids & check valves. The activated charcoal loop is VERY important
both for emissions (yes, I hug trees on occasion) and for idle/part throttle. Did you know that fuel vapors from the fuel tank that are stored in the activated charcoal can actually make up almost 50% of the fuel delivered to the engine when the system is activated?
