I've found a few and althought that's a real good option if you can find a ft actuator, it seems to be more accepted that a MBC would be a better option. I guess because it is cheaper and not contingent on finding a used part. Also because the actuator "only" raises it to 8-9psi.

EDIT: im stupid, the ft actuator is adjustable. I think the argument is that if you are going to adjust the pressure higher than 8-9psi, you will need a gauge, because the lpt doesn't have a pressure gauge. So if you are going to install a gauge anyways, you are better off with a MBC.
