Default Whats wrong??????

Ok.I had an ebay manual boost controller fitted to my 97 s70r. Me, or a few of my clued in friends could not get it to work. I decided to put the car back to standard. But now, when i give it a boot full, it goes to mid boost(0.5)freely ,then struggles all the way to full boost(1.0).It feels like its not spooling up freely.Please help me out guys!

What type of MBC did you buy? Was it a spring and ball type or a bleed valve.
