cheers lads so thats a defo nono, i thort so but ive also heard alot of bad things about fcd and told not to bother, wen u use fcd u also need fpr, i was also told that wen u use these it messes up the fueling etc completely...

 

[ginor]

Lol no, you have to get a FCD and FPR and then get it setup on a rolling road, they can set your fuel right for you car and then its all good

cheers mate rep added...

 

[cossiej23]

dnt need it set up on rolling road,get it set up with a wideband,does same job

 

[jay-glanza-v]

ok cheers mate... rep+

yep fuel cut may even damage ur pistons mate. avoid it at all costs.

FCD and FPR can be put up and set by a wideband AFR or a Dyno run, to be adjusted for exactly ur needs.

p.s dont run higher boost than 0.8 with the stock manifold on cause that will also damage ur engine.

 

[Glanza_cl]

dont bother with a fcd just turn down the boost slightly until you want to get it mapped and set up correctly

 

[jay-glanza-v]

by mapped ant set up correctly u mean a better ecu, (emanage, jam,etc...)

yep, emanage blue if you're planning on running 1 bar on ct9 will do the job nicely

as above
