Another option: T in a bypass circuit with a solenoid.

Switched off, it bypasses the MBC & holds boost to 5 PSI.
Switched on, it closes the bypass & uses the MBC.
It's simple, reliable, & runs on one wire.
$35 including the MBC.

pfffffffftt response - shresponse, plumb the thing in there and be done with it.
I beleive your best bet would be beside one of the A/C evaporator lines as mentioned, you can access the back side of the lowest one without taking anything apart.
Hey that isone sweet setup you've got there sureshot!! beats the heck outta my slick old school RB in-cabin......I like the fact that you can go right back to stock boost without messing with the MBC settings.

When I did the vac simplify & emmissions removal, I kept the old solenoids.
When I hooked up the MBC, I just used one of them & capped its vent.
All my modification wiring is passed through the former ABS harness hole.
The switch is a hooded safety switch from a parts store.
The label was made on a Brother label maker.

sureshot!!! thats freakin awesome!!!
maybe i could use 2 boost controllers? run one right after solenoid..
that way i could run 10 LBS. all day and track day...throw the switch and hit 14 or 15???
of course it wouldnt be on a stock turbo!
