Found a TurboXS MBC for $45.
I'm wanting to turn the boost in my turbo'ed outback up from stock 8 psi to 10 or 11. What do you think?

Heck yeah, I'd get it. You already got the intercooler so why not? Might as well rig up an FCD and turn up the boost even more.

I don't want to go too crazy with the boost until I get a wideband o2 and can check my AFR's. In the meantime I would use the MBC to take the boost to around 10. I think this is more than safe. Thanks for the input.

Yeah, 10psi won't hurt anything with a stock setup.
