Im aiming to get one of these ebay ecu\'s soon so that should hopefully retard the timing enough.
What would be the next logical step for my car on the existing mods to make 0.9-1.0 bar.

3 inch from tub back
blitz dump valve
fuel cut defender
blitz air filter
boost gauge
manual boost controller

Adam fc · January 04, 2010, 01:52:14 AM

L18M · January 04, 2010, 12:25:02 PM

stock pipe is about 2 1/4" or 2 1/2".

Grinder-yeah its an ss auto chrome 3 inch.By adding one of these blitz ecus will this retard the timing enough for me to run 0.9 boost on the mods i have listed above?

My car is boosting to around 0.8 bar and i need to sort something out before it dies lol.

.8 should be ok to be honest ( he says

)

is that with the FCD still fitted ?

It\'s just about the same as mine then set up wise (see my sig). Mine has been like this for at least a couple of years now. I wouldn\'t worry too much just get a chipped ECU in and a FCD. Just don\'t go wacking the boost up and you\'ll be ok. The stock turbo isn\'t good enough to cope with anymore than about 0.8 bar anyway.

Oh my exhaust came out of the same factory as the SS Autochrome ones.
