Should be no problem..

I ran that ScoobyECU on my 96 UK car with full decat and HKS mushroom filter with no problems..

Worth bearing in mind that if you haven't already changed the coil packs then they might need doing very soon.

Thumbs up

I would personally say that it would be worth fitting an uprated fuel pump, and an adjustable fuel regulator as a precaution.

Other items to consider are: -

Boost gauge
Knocklink & sensor

Cheers

I got 290bhp on a scoobyecu map for 16.5 psi, think torque was about 250lb/ft before moving to a Link. For the money the scoobyecu is excellent. To be extra safe a nice dose of NF with Optimax would be good.
