I am taking off an mbc and going to use the stock electronic boost controllers...

Does anyone or could anyone provide pics of a stock setup?

Thanks in advance!!

Just curious, what is your reasoning?

Need to bring it to the dealer for warranty work.

You removing your FMIC and exhaust as well? Considering what I went through to get all of the parts on to the car, I couldn't imagine doing that.

Yes everything is back to stock. I would like to know that I have the stock boost controllers on proper.

my dealer was the same way... i had to get a faulty maf replaced, and they wouldnt work on it unless i took everything back to stock.

they were just giving me a hard time knowingly that non of my mods caused a maf failure... i had stock intake at the time.

I'm going to treat my car as if it doesn't have a warranty--take it to my local shop and only bring it to the dealer if it is electrical or complicated. I know I'll have to pay for everything.

A MAF wouldn't cost enough for me to spend 2-3 days taking my car back to stock (assuming I had kept all of the parts, which I didn't...I live in a condo with no room to be starting an auto-parts store in my hallway).

I have a garage to work with and i think the maf is $200-300 from the dealer. I'm not about to pay for a faulty piece.

also i didnt have that much mods back then either... UICP and exhaust.

Now i have a bigger turbo and all bolt ons, i'm to scared to even bring it in for the free oil changes they been giving me or the recalls thats been out.
