its hooked up to 3 wires on the ECU plug and it electronically limits the signal from the map sensors so the computer only ever sees a maximum of 14.5psi boost even when you are running more, the levels below 14.5psi are not affected so it wont change your mixtures.

Havn't decided on a price yet, maybe $30NZD?

Hey jay, sorry about the long delay, I installed it in my car but am now having a few unrelated issues with vacuum piping throwing codes and stuff, when I have got that sorted and have got a new fuel filter on it then Ill give the FCD a test and fire it off to you.

It means you can boost over the boost cut level, it doesnt provide any more fuel tho so you have to be careful.

Yes a bigger fuel pump wont hurt to keep your fuel pressure constant, but you shouldnt need one unless you are fitting bigger injectors.

About 16psi is probably as high as you want to go on factory fueling and injectors, if you want to go any higher then an extra injector setup likea turboLink or similar would be the way to go. Just sticking bigger injectors in will kill your fuel economy and all of the mixtures bar your high boost ones.

Probably something from a VL commonwhore would be a good size, Ive actually gone off the extra injector setup for a while, I am going to try and research chipping the factory ECU's, if this looks too hard then Ill get back onto the extra injector thingie
