a$$
oh well, will have a hunt about
I presume you connected it to where the N75 sits and then route the cables through the bulkhead? where did you install your EBC in the car?
under the steering wheel to the right hand side theres a little cubbie hole stuck it to that and yes 2 cables and a vac pipe for it

You may find it takes a while to get the mbc set right as it can be a very fine line. How have you got it plumbed in? Also what is your actuator pressure?

got it plumbed in off the two of the lines to the N75, will try and get some pics up

Let us know how you get on with it. Mines like a boost lottery at the moment.
I'm looking at the AEM Tru-boost, but only becuase I like the neat mounting solution.
Oh yeah, take a look at this for getting started with setting up the profec --> http://www.elitedubs.com/index.php/topic,741.0.html

Will your Forge Unos be needing a new home......
lol yes it will indeed mate, but wont be for a couple of weeks till I get the Greddy wired in and all setup. I will pm you when I sell it
thanks mate, thats a BIG help
I got the Profec B spec 2 if you need a hand setting it up.
Nice easy EBC to fit and works really well.

Yeah get a pic up. Is its got three lines yes? In, exhaust and atmosphere.
Dont quite understand why you have just gone and got an ebc when you dont even know A-if its set up right and B-if boost control is actually your problem.
Also how much adjustment has the mbc got on it. What is the distance difference between fully wound out and totally closed?

yep three lines, need to get some pics of the CF cover tonight as its getting sent back, so will get some pics up of the MBC as well
The actuator on the turbo is wound right up, could it be this? the MBC was doing its job right, as in winding it and boost was gradually increasing, but upon more requested boost it would not go any further. power has certianly increased and it is a lot smoother now
I have not seen inside the MBC, but is it solenoid and spring controlled at all, because with the kit came a spring, and I have no idea what this is for i.e. similar to a Forge DV, there are different stiffer and softer springs, so apply the same principal to the MBC?
sorry I did not measure this Phil, but I will take it off and see what the difference is.
do you want me to take a pic of where the actuator is wound to?
On the MBC minimum (fully wound in) is hitting 0.7 bar and Maximum (wound out) is 1.2 bar
to be honest I should have got the EBC from the start but didn't really (mainly due to the issue where I thought you had to solder it onto the ECU, but since Moff has cleared that up, and the Greddy runs off the existing N75 like the MBC does, hence I have now ordered it)
