I had a mbc, then switched out to an ebc. Big difference in performance, turbo spooled much better and I had consistent boost from gear to gear. I highly recommend getting an ebc. Search ebay for a greddy profec-b. They work well, are simple and are pretty cheap.

EBC! There's no point with an MBC. Sure, they work, but why be cheap on something so important.

Haha, theres probably about 2 or 3 "ebc vs mbc" threads a month.. Consistent response is, "if you can afford it, go EBC"

Its on my list of todo's.. right now I have the lindsey MBC.

I was hoping to have a little black **** to get rid of soon, but my budget is running very thin right now... maybe in a couple of months.
