Well, installed a MBC parrell to the N75 this weekend....
the difference is night and day....smooth, strong...no more cutting of the throttle. Still have some minor tweaking to do, but overall, extremely happy

I thought I explained it to you via e-mail. Maybe I left that part out...
It is essentially a MAP clamp that places a limit on what the ECU and VAG can read for boost levels. As a result, beyond those levels, you can run more boost than the chip is requesting without the ECU cutting throttle because it thinks it is actually making less boost. This is what I have on my car, which allows me to spike to ~19 psi. It is also used on many k04'd cars that use k03 s/w because they run the MBC in place of the N75 to run a flat boost level across the rpm. Without the PEB-TCD, you would cut throttle once the actual boost deviates too far beyond the requested. This MAP clamp eliminates the problem. E-mail me if you want to know more. You still have my addy I assume.
