Default Turbosmart Manual boost controller

How reliable are these boost controllers? I just installed one and Im satisfied with the results but I've heard that they are known to spike now and then. Anybody else using this mbc and how do you like it.

Thanks..

Default Re: Turbosmart Manual boost controller (Mr.Death)

The only one that I have had personal experience with is the single stage engine bay mount (out of cabin).

The experience that I was having is that it got tapped out on us. We turned it open, but was only giving us a few extra pounds over what the gate was giving us (Tial 40mm). Yes ut did give us a spike, but then came back down and never surpassed that 2 or 3 PSI gain again. So then we changed over to a dual stage Turbo XS, and have had zero issues like that since (knocking on wood).

Hope that helps a little for what it's worth.
