This is the one I have... nobody has proven yet that a $100 Hallman or whatever does it better: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Voodo...14048537QQrdZ1
Maybe somebody tomorrow at NEDD will have one of the expensive ones I can swap straight on for a back-to-back test with my el-cheapo. I am 100,000% happy with mine. Turn the **** for more boost...easy as that.

ebay mbc is way cheaper, unless PAT! gives you a free Forge mbc :gay:, FM is apparently less convenient and more attractive to theives
As far as MBC's go. I really like the Forge that I got from member PAT!. The ratcheting action is nice and precise. Easier to work with than the FM MBC it replaced, and more precise and stable with the ratcheting locks. (with the FM you have to remove the tube to spin the body to retension the spring, then reconnect the tube when you're done).

Most? You mean like all the Honda Drag cars that need consistency? I don't think so dude. That a huge blanket statement that you or anyone else are incapable of backing up. Just because certain circles of Evo and Supra guys are gung ho Hallman doesn't mean anything. The truth is that most people(not saying guys here who are for the most part smarter than the norm) give up on their EBCs since they are beyond a lot of peoples ability to tune properly. They assume You wire it up and turn the **** to the boost you want and are done. It doesn't work that way. Then you see it up for sale a few weeks later with the owner singing praises of the MBC since he was capable of using it.
Besides...who the **** has time to get out of the car to turn the boost up? When I shift into 3rd and need to go from 300 whp to 400 whp I need to do it right then.
If you like MBCs just say you like and prefer them.
