I have a Turboxs single stage mbc. I'm currently running 10psi at no problem. However, I'm putting in a fully built motor and plan to run aroound 20 psi. Will I need to replace my mbc to a electronic bc?

They will work fine at high boost. But with a good electronic boost controller, the turbo spools up a little faster.
