Hi

Does anyone know if the abbott manual boost control will work ok with my T7 9-3 lpt?

Cheers
Rick

Not sure if it will work (but don't know enough on T7 or 9-3LPTs to say for sure). But if it is a goer have a look at the Forge website and compare their price to Abbott's. Abbott source kit from Forge and while I'm not saying this definitely is the same bit of kit, have a look and make your own mind up...
Forge

Abbott

Of course if you're paying the Abbott price then I'd expect them to be able to tell you whether it will work and talk you through fitting.

i was gonna make a new post but figured i'd save space. can someone give me a short explamation as to what an MBC does and how it increases performance? thanks

an MBC will seriously upset T7 computer, it will use other means to bring engine under control if you remove boost control from it.

An improperly setup MBC can also seriously damage an engine!
With T7 the only safe way to uprate the power is using a ECU upgrade.

It seems the SMBC is only common in the states?

Maybe it's because re-programmed ECU's are easier to get in Europe or it's because we like to let Trionic do the job it's supposed to do

 

[XAAMOTTOMAAX]

ECU's and stage kits are just as easy to get in the states as they are in Europe. We just pay more (good thing we make more money over here . And if you want to let Trionic slow down your turbo spool up when you first hit the throttle, because that is a "job" it performs, more power to you. I would rather force my turbo to spool quickly but still let Trionic manage max. pressure.

IIRC your running an auto box..
your a brave man...

 

[XAAMOTTOMAAX]

There is no change in maximum torque or boost pressure with the SMBC. You're right about the auto, but I have spotted a 2001 Aero 5 speed for sale locally. Stand by...
