Default EBC recommendations

So I have a Hydra and have spent a couple days trying to set up the Hydra EBC.

Before, when I had a 15psi spring in my WG (external tial) I could hit 9 psi by 3600rpm.

Now, with a 9psi spring and using the Hydra EBCI can only hit 9psi by 4300rpm and 15psi by 5000rpm.

This sucks. I've worked on tuning the stupid curve and I feel like a fucktard because I can't get the boost response any better than that. My setup obviously can build boost nice and fast so it's obviously the EBC that's sucking.

Can anyone recommend a functional EBC that works or give some tips on how to make the hydra EBC work properly??

What version of the Hydra do you have? did you source it from FM? if so have you tried contacting them?

Yes I have spoken with FM.
