Me too! I had to trim my spring as well. You get more accuracy with the spring trimmed, plus with the spring at full length, 1.5 threads in on the adjustment **** was like 15 psi!! I was like holy crap! Thats way too much!

It all depends on what kind you want, prices vary. I spent $480 on mine when it first came out back in the day.

I will be building some EBC this winter for cheap atleast half of the cheapest I hope. I already have most of the code for the uC, I just dont have the time. I figure around new years is when we will be doing the testing.

I will have a base model which you will hook up to your computer to adjust and I will have the base model + lcd + solenoid combo. It will double as a boost guage also.

The prices will be from 60-200 depending on the options. Thats assuming I can get a market. I think I can, but who knows.

Oh and don't forget how Beau's HMT MBC failed on him!
it only failed because someone was putting a different bolt in it and didnt relize the spring fell out id say it was more user error than mechanicle failure.
