Default Manual boost controller

Do these work effectively and are they safe?

At the moment my car boosts to 1.3 and then tails off to 1.1 nearing the redline. Will the MBC allow me to hold the boost at 1.2 or 1.3 bar and not drop below as the revs climb?I'm looking to get a Turbosmart MBC off a member on this forum so i just want to make sure its going to help me.
Apparently it also enables faster spool up too??

Thanks,
Imran

I run a Dawes and yes it does improve spool, had mine fitted well over a year now with zero probs.

Personally i think the Dawes is better than the TS, better quality.
