CV vs. manual
wow, I cannot believe these discussions are still going on after all of these years....
On my last 951, I installed a Tial WG and a manual boost controller. I had no problems. Of course this was a street/track car, with many modifications (e.g., turbo, suspension, etc). I ran as high as 1.1 bar on the track. It all worked great. Of course, this car was VERY highly maintained, and I built a semi-race engine foro it (chronicled in Excellence years ago).
I have a good friend with an ex-Rothmans car that was later raced in Firehawk by Milledge, et al. It also has an mbc.... and he runs as high as 17 psi, though rarely. This car has some really neat stuff on it...
The really cool stuff can be seen on the 924 GTPs and GTRs which I get to visit occasionally. These cars have some really neat things on them, and are very rare.
Anyway, for a street car, I see no reason to get rid of the cv and stock boost control setup. Worked fine and did not require any special maintenance.
