MBC is a manual boost controller, which can increase boost on a T5 (red ID) to around 15 PSI. You want a ball-spring type as these increase the rate of boost like nothing else. This design however has always, and will always have pressure overshoot issues that can be overcome with an addition of an air pressure regulator as an anticipator.
A SMBC is a MBC in series with the BPC instead of bypassing it. This does not increase peak boost much or at all, but makes the boost come on fast. This can be used on a T5 or T7. And makes a great complement to a modified ECU, buy making the boost come on much faster. And this effect is much greater than you will get from new intakes or down pipes etc. )A SMBC has no need of an anticipator.)
So for a T5, a MBC + anticipator is great, but a modified ECU + SMBC would be more refined. For a T7, a SMBC with or without a modified ECU is good.
