I'd wait, if I were in your position. You won't be able to really get a good feel for the MBC+A's DRASTIC improvements without the airbox mod and drop in filter. Plus, once you do the other mods, you're going to want to readjust your MBC+A again to take advantage of it.

I installed my MBC+A from Jeff in ATL last week, and because it's hard to get whole-shots done on the street without interference (other cars, or bears)...I'm still tweaking. But so far, my 9-3 went from very fast to being a ROCKET...I went from about 4-5 psi boost in first gear WOT, to about 10 psi, and right now I'm at about 15 psi in 3rd WOT.

Someone described the mod as making boost "faster" and I would DEFINITELY agree -- and you'll understand what we mean when you finally install it. I can spin tires through first and second, and the beginning of third if I want to....but you'll have to adjust your shifting -- i've found that I can't drop the clutch like I used to...you'll have to feather it a bit and get the hang of it. But like I said .. by far, the biggest improvement you'll note is how much faster the boost is.

Now I just have to control myself from breaking the bank for the exhaust and MP clamp and brace...you have to spread these things out you know... ;) enjoy!

remember to smile and wave to the civic next to you at the next stoplight...ask him if that 7" tach and 6 foot tall wing helps him win races...then show him what it feels like to lose a race...
