Just wondering if these two are both necessary or if you can just get the Standback and have the same effect.

how? by not hitting 18psi or by actually doing something about it?

well from what mike said in the other thread hes able to set where fuel cut happens like higher in the rpms but hes not able to totally get rid of it yet and that wont happen till we get a fuel solution.. but running the two things together would be a very bad thing.

so pretty much it does nothing for fuel cut, it just doesnt boost high enough to hit it.

it does push it furthur back into the rpm range mike said he hit it while racing but he never hit on once he was rlly tuned on the dyno... we just need fuel.. then it wont even be a problem. hes boosting safely all the way too redline at 17psi on the 76r

If you can't tune fuel cut out then you're not using the standback correctly. It has its own parameters to feed the ECU constant signals so it never sees fuel cut and you can program it to hit it's own fuel cut at any boost/MAF voltage you want. Keep trying.

The standback will do at the very least what the ATP FCD will do.

There is a setting in the standback boost page called 'boost clip.'

What this does is allow you to set a boost number that the ECM will see. So if you wanted it to never see more than 13psi, your ecu will always think thats the max you're boosting too, and that issue of fuel cut will be resolved.

But I've said it a million times, fuel cut is simply not a function of boost pressure within the manifold, which is why Mike is still hitting the fuel cut.

so what is boost cut caused by. Cause i ran as much as 21psi while i was tunning my mbc and have yet to hit fuel cut.

From what I've noticed, I think it is usually caused by a combination of the MAP and MAF readings, but can also ba caused by excessivly lean AFR's. If the maf reading is higher than expected for a certian boost level you get fuel cut. I hit fuel cut at only 15psi a few times when it was below 30 deg last winter..but didn't have any issues this summer at 17psi..

The FCD will change the map signal before the standback, so all the boost settings in the standback will not work properly. The standback reads the boost from the map sensor, and uses that for the boost controller, and the boost clip to help eliminate fuel cut.

One of the major benifits of the standback is the very good boost controller built into it-why would you want to use a MBC?

Because the stock boost controller that is mounted on the stock turbo is eliminated with the ATP kit and is just replaced with a vacuum hose which is meant to have an mbc on it to regulate boost.

because its 60 bucks instead of 600 and gains the same power, which is limited by the fuel system

You can easily use the stock boost control solenoid with the ATP kit.. Just tee it into the boost line before the wastgate..

there are 1000hp cars that run an mbc. I dont think its that much of a risk if you know what you are doing, buy something quality, and set it up correctly.

Also, ATP told me not to run the stock boost control solenoid when I asked them about it during my 3076r install

the only problem I see with running the stock boost control solenoid is the FACT that is regulates boost right after a huge spike
I have ZERO spike issues with my MBC/ATP F_C_D combo
I'm going to agree with whoever said "if you know what you are doing, an MBC can be useful and work pretty well
My MBC will be my partner on the MS6 until I have the car where I want it in terms of bolt on parts....then CP-E EMS is inevitable

I'm not saying that all MB's are junk, but the standback is just safer. You can turn the boost up all you want to with a MBC, and your AFR's might be fine up top, but you can't do anything about the lean spot you'll get at part throttle from the faster spool. Why do you think alot of blown motors happen at only part throttle in the lower rpms...Take a look at the base map that comes with the stand back. They add boost, but they also add fuel..

your fuel addition is controlled by the MAF readings. if you add boost via MBC the car will keep stock like A/F's. the maf reads the incoming air and tells the ecu how much fuel to add. it will need a short "re-learning" period like any other mod, but your ecu will adjust and be totally safe, all the way until you reach the MAF max (which is well above 18psi, even in cold weather) those who knock a MBC just dont understand it. true it is not a "tuning solution" like the standback, but the results seen by MBC users is hard to argue with. so far the MBC MS3's actually make MORE power than cars with the standback. no blown motors yet either !

well he did, as well as trapping 107 on the stock downpipe. Notice the top of the graph goes flat, thats probably the restrictive downpipe/pos intercooler doing its thing. once he replaces those two and allows the turbo to work easier and not loose pressure through the system im sure hell be cracking 340-350

give up, they make the same power, ure not tunning shit it any of the standbacks, the reason they make any power is because they raise boost. The only benafit of a standback is part throttle driving and the ability to be an idiot by flooring the car in 6th gear at 1500rpm...u simply cant do that with a mbc. untill throttle control comes out, that is the ONLY thing you are paying 600 bucks for and fucking up ure wiring harness.

oh really? what do you tune? you have ZERO CONTROL over the throttle and thats what limits power on these cars. The only thing u can do is a a/f ratio, which guess what are not lean or rich with a mbc, and timing, whihc once again guess what is spot on factory. the only thing you can do is part throttle boost since the stock boost control system actaully takes care of it for you. look at hp figures for every tuned ms3/6 and compare them to mbc figures. They are virtually they same and both will run the fuel pump try with mods. once cobb or cpe comes out with throttle control, thats when ill whip out my amex and actually 'tune' the car

sure you can, its called running out of fuel or not running enough of boost. if you run 17-18psi you will nto run rich or lean. you can 'tune' a mbc as well, all you need is a egt guage or a a/f guage
