so im at the final stage of the build on the honda and all i have left to do is plumb in a MBC and put oil/coolant in the car.

Ive been reading up on Hallmans MBCs and have found they are highly acclaimed by basically everybody who runs an MBC.

anybody have anything to say about this?

Get a Hallman. Period. You will be very happy with its quality. By far the best MBC I have ever used.

I was very happy with my Hallman-Pro-In car manual. Worked excellent and then I didnt have to keep jumping out when getting the boost dialed in.

whats tricky about them? you adjust the cracking pressure for spool, and duty cycle % for boost levels. everything else you have to adjust literally once and then leave it.

its easy to switch between preset levels, its easy to check high boost levels and clear them. even the wiring/install is easy.

scramble boost is the only other setting that requires some adjustment.
