I guess a boost controller wouldn't hurt... I talked to the guys at
Tuning Chip in Sweden (http://www.tuningchip.com), and they have a
controller supposed to be much like the Hallman one
(http://www.hallmanboostcontroller.com) and for a very nice price
too. I thought that it would be a good idea to control the boost
somehow. Any comments...
cheers,
