Message	A typical ball and spring mbc does not act anything like a boost jet. The ball and pring mechanism mechanically seals the wastegates from pressure until the spring has been overcome. this means if the mbc is set for 15 psi, your wastegates get 0 psi at 12 psi of manifold pressure. this is quite different then a boost jet. Antihero These 2530's ain't half bad ;)
Follow Ups	Anyone actually running safety boost solenoids with a MBC? - nomoco 10:45:10 09/11/09 MBC does not belong on a TT Z. (n/m) - John@Z1 11:05:24 09/11/09 It depends on the turbos.

It needs the stock solenoid - Bernie (NoVA) 11:18:29 09/11/09 huh? - Antihero 11:47:01 09/11/09 ??? (n/m) - TTFairladyZ 11:48:31 09/11/09 Boost jets require the stock solenoid, MBC's don't.
