Thanks guy's i like it in that location, i havent seen it mounted there before i have always seen it in the ac bezel.....

And Trav dont feel bad, atleast you have one of the cleanest NT's out there!

Does the long line to the engine bay affect anything?

I'll be ordering the cockpit cable from MAPerformance on monday, although my buddy had his MBC in car with reg. vacum line and had no problems with it!
 
Damn, looks sick man! But i'll stick with mine under the hood, out of reach of curious passengers.LOL
Looks real good though man GJ.

LOL!

The only people that ride with me is my gf, and she pretty much knows not to touch anything but the radio.....:thumb:
 
Do you guys seriously change your boost settings that much that you need to have it in-car? Any of my vehicles are tuned for whatever I wanted and that's basically where it stays until I change something.
 
It's not that we change boost levels all the time, but when we do it's way easier then pulling over adj. boost etc.
 
I have noticed the need to occasionally reset the MBC. Anything from the weather to minor, forgotten, late-night, drunken, car mods can result in a change in boost levels. It would be neat to have in-cabin control, but I love a stock appearance. I even resent the need for an aftermarket boost gauge and a pillar-pod to hold it. I wish there was an aftermarket boost gauge that installed in the factory instrument panel.

Anyway, maybe I'll snap a pic of my Joe-P MBC (purchased from Ludachris) zip-tied to my UICP/J-pipe. Then maybe I'll up-load it.
 
I might have also if it worked, and if i actually cared about fixing it LOL.....

I like it because i have never seen it there, so i figured why not!
 
Mine is easy. I just place it between the coolant reservior and frame. It's not even mounted. Before the bash mine didn't come with the mount bracket and second, after couple of 1/4 mile runs it has not yet moved... I'll snap a pix and quote this post to show you tomorrow.
 
I used to have mine mounted in my 2g right by my knee's and it worked good but thought I was getting some fluctuation with boost and Heard it wasnt good to have such a long line. Does anyone know what are the cons of running it like this? and is it really even noticable
 
Well if u never actually use it then it's good in your case then. But your space to the left of the coin compartment is begging for something to be put there.




Are u mad that u dont have a boost controller too or what?



I tried to mount it there 1st but it didnt look as clean......

And since i cant find any 1g's in the junkyards i'll have to leave it empty....:coy:
