Question about mbc

I'm about to get mbc and came up with some newbie questions. first, which version would you recommend? and second, what do i use to cap off wastegate control or PCA? do caps come with the kit? and last, how do i block off solenoids? do i just zip tie the hoses? or do I use the caps for this also? Thanks!

I'm using a hallman evolution. It's nice to be able to adjust from in the car.

I don't know the answer to your second quesion.

Run a search on non sequential to get info on capping the solenoids.

1. Ball/spring type. I use a "Home-Depot" version
2. Just insert a "pill" with no hole into the lines from the WG & PC actuators - this handles both the actuator and the solenoid block-offs.

I am running the same controller. I am using the vacuum diagram below (Version 2). Just replace the stepper motor with a manual boost controller. P.S. Hallman is the best, but expect to pay for quality!!!!

The link below will bring you to the site for the controller.
