Joe P Manual Boost Controller

[FastFWD]

Order got a little confused, but Joe turned it around, and was very good at replying to all emails.

Product is great, very easy to install. Only two hoses to connect.

Once I got it dialed in, dead on at 15 pounds every time. No creep whatsoever, with a much faster spool up time.

I bought a '90 Talon TSi with a Joe P MBC already installed on it, so I can't speak intelligently about the ordering/shipping or installation processes, but I can tell you about my usage experience with it:

Once you set the thing, it stays locked. I'm running 22 PSI. When the turbo kicks in, it peaks momentarily at about 23 PSI, then falls to 22 PSI and STAYS THERE until I take my foot off the gas or hit the rev limiter, whichever comes first. The thing is rock solid.

It has the same drawbacks as any other MBC (not cockpit adjustable, no switching boost levels on the fly), but as compared other MBCs, I don't see how you can justify spending more for another one. The thing sells for $50 and there are no problems with it. I just don't see the difference between this and a $100 MBC; they do the same thing.

Bottom line is that if I had to buy another MBC, I'd buy a Joe P.
