I was talking to Vic at Pautertuning a while ago about his set up with the .63, he was saying because his shroud wasn't ported, that he got some compressor surge onto boost just because how quickly it spools up.
gotta be honest, i still love my setup. I actually love the lag, it makes people think they have a chance lol!
I was actually talking to Thom about about boost recovery with my turbo. I was actually pretty surprised how will it recovers after shifts. You would think it'll be a lot worse.
Not sure about the spikes just yet. i'll figure that one out soon
Its .16 seconds from gear change WOT to full boost.
2nd - 3rd - 4th

yeah you can, it controls the wastegate, you can make the wastegate stay closed untill it needs to be open, usually 3 psi before full boost.
in 2nd gear it'll overboost so i have it set 5 psi before full boost so i can go for it in 2nd. but then in 3rd + it takes a bit longer to full boost, so thats the reason why i want to go boost by gear.

When I had my Greddy EBC, boost came on a tad quicker but experience similar issue like paulyy mentioned above and plus i hate fiddling with stuff so the MBC went in. I happy with it. I had the cigaret lighter re-worked so that the MBC can sit and it is adjustable if needed.

I did have the MBC in for a log and did notice a more flatter curve and spikes at the end but the boost sloped down.
The spikes are hard to figure out since the eboost was still connected as a boost gauge and when pressed peak boost it didn't show the boost the spikes registered.
I have the feeling it's got to do with the manifold pressure waves inside the manifold, because i have my old auto meter boost gauge and no spikes are shown but i do see a slight flutter of boost + - 1-2 psi but nothing more then what it shows on the logs which are 5+ boost from maximum boost.

For the sake of comparison, i'll get my MBC back in and set it to a boost and set the eBoost2 to the same boost and compair back to back data logs.

Are you sure you do not have a leak somewhere?
