Default does anyone run a MBC?...
I was wondering because I am stage 2+ right now with a GIAC chip and my peak boost is about 12 psi. I think that is very low and want to raise it up. Anyone happy with their MBC? Any problems with them?

Do you have any VAG logs of this? Should be 16-17 psi tapering to 12-13 psi at redline.

Default See if you can find someone locally that run some block 115 VAG logs for you to double check your
boost gauge and find out more about your issue. The requested vs actual boost from VAG will help you sort things out.

Nope.... No one would ever run an MBC. It washes out all the pixie dust in Turbos :/
