try and stabilze boost, ive already done the bypass mod, but i think the N75 is faulty :(

N75 can be mapped via your ECU so there isn't really a plug and play version that will give you a happy ending

There isn't a 'better' n75 they work depending on your map.
But they are all better then a mbc!
Ditch the mbc and plumb in a new n75.
If you want more power get a remap.


R-tech custom remap - k04-001- 250bhp/311ftlb  :grin:
