If I post up "what's the down side to 20" rims", doesn't it imply I think there's an up side to them?
As far as other cars with ECU running MBCs... I would assume one of two things: either there's no good way to reprogram the ECU like there is on Subaru's, or there are people that are looking for cheap ways of tricking the car into making a little more power at the cost of longevity just like there are with the Subaru owners that put MBCs on their cars w/o proper engine management.
Like I said, this topic is pretty well sorted out by the community: MBCs are bad in almost every case, the exception being when you're using one in conjunction with custom programed engine management, and even then the benefits are debatable.

exactly, and i posted whats wrong with boost controllers, didn't i imply there was a downside?
i asked because i didn't know like any other question. all i wanted to know was what causes the ill effects on the subarus just out of curosity. if i wanted to put one on i would have.
