This has surely been discussed a lot here, but since the search still isn't working...
The fuel-cut is as low as 15.5PSI (Autometer boost gauge, should be quite reliable) on my car, and that's not acceptable
I need to lift it up a bit (maybe 17.5-18PSI), but I'd like to do it in a "reliable" way. What FCD/FCL have you found to be worth its price? The cheapest one is of course to put a 1€ bleedvalve on the hose to the map sensor, I did that on my previous car (Legacy turbo), but it's perhaps not the most reliable way there is. On the other hand, the most expensive electronic ones that do the same thing can cost... VERY much.
So, any preferences, I see that Turbosmart has a pneumatic one which isn't that expensive, although the MRT electronic one is almost the same price...
All suggestions appreciated, and I'd really be pleased if you could point me to an online store where I could buy one of these within Europe.
