Boost level after fitting MBC 855 T-5

How to go faster, stop quicker, and turn harder. Chips, exhaust, larger turbos, bigger/slotted/drilled rotors, high performance brake pads, manual boost controllers, performance shocks/struts/springs, airbox mods and more! Also discussion on HID and Xenon lights, aftermarket foglights and other exterior lighting.

Boost level after fitting MBC 855 T-5

Post by charlyW »

Anyone suggest a suitable Boost level after fitting a Manual Boost Controller on my 855 T-5? Without setting anything just taking the MBC out of it's box fitting it I now have 14-15 PSI boost on Eco mode, unfortunately I can only test at motorway speeds upto 70mph so the stock boost needle isn't going full swing as it's been suggested

Next weekend I've got some track time after a full brake refit [This thing is so heavy on brakes 3rd set of pads 2nd set of discs since March]
