Installing Hallman MBC

[Anthony Yacullo]

Hey guys doing some maintenance and installing my Hallman Pro MBC. I am T'ing off my BoV and I know its not the best place but my jpipe has no fitting yet. Anyways I am running a hose from my Internal WG to the boost controller, but my fitting seems loose on the waste gate I can just pull the hose even tho I have a clamp on there. My question is how hard should the hoses be on?



*UPDATE NEED SOME SERIOUS HELP

I installed the MBC today and also cleaned out my TB (took off the elbow and sprayed it). Took it for a spin and right when I went into boost I hit fuel cut. Look on tuners for some help and saw I need to run the vac lines on the BCS in a loop so I did that, unplugged the battery and waited for 5 mins. Started again and my idle around 1500 dropped to 250 and than proceeded with a backfire. I had a tune on the car, would me unplugging the battery all day erase it?

Mods: turbo back 3 inch no cat, link, and s16g

i would tie the mbc to one of the ports on the intake manifold near where the injectors go not the throttle body

It must be tight. Use a smaller hose.

they need to be on there as tight as you can get them or you risk them blowing off and then you will have a vacuum leak. i usually zip tie them on as tight as they will go. i would just keep it tee'd into the bov until you can get a fitting in your j-pipe.

They do need to be tight as possible. Small hose clamps work perfect and You should not tee off your bov. Tee off one of the other vaccum lines from the intake manifold.

303_2g you know what im talking about my brotha

he will be perfectly fine teeing off the bov. plenty of people do it. you want your vacuum lines as short as possible to you boost controller.

Help will be appreciated! might be easier to text 8182974076

someone correct me if i am wrong but i believe the tune saves to your ecu. so it shouldnt erase it if you take the battery out. try and check for boost leak or vacuum leak since you took the throttle body off.

I guess all that stuff happens if your stock intercooler snorkel isnt on.....

Your tune only deletes if you have v2 and unplug the battery. With the MBC, take a look at the barb fittings, the one with a small hole it in goes on the side from the BOV to the fitting with the hole.
