You will have to basically get rid of your APC solinoid, so I've heard. I don't know exactly how to install the MBC, but the middle line in your APC solinoid is connected to your wastegate if that helps any. I tapped into that line to put a restrictive vavle in place to limit air flow and basically do the same thing a MBC would do, as well as tweaked my APC box. A question for you... Do you go with any fuel upgrades on your stock engine? Because right now my turbo is capable and is wanting to produce 20psi, but doesn't have the right air/fuel mixture. If your setup is anything like mine... you will be able to send your boost through the roof with the MBC, but when you hit 15 pounds your fuel supply will automatically cut off as a safety precaution since your engine will be runnning waaaaay too lean. And believe me, this will tick you off more than anything, whiplash like you wouldn't believe. Dropping from 3rd to 1st at 30mph and reaching 50 in 2 seconds then getting your fuel cut is not pleasant. haha That's all the advice I can give for now, I'm a fairly young "saaber." Peace
