I'm not sure what an MY97/98 boost to, but the AE801 in an MY99 peaks at 13.64psi in the ECU map. I suspect the MY97/98 is similar as it uses the same Turbo.

Just to jump in on this thread.... Does anyone know if the overboost cutout's the same on the pre and post Sept. 1994.,

I'm temporarily running a later ECU with the rest of the electronics as pre '94. with huge overboost problems in the higher gears - Apexi AVC-R not quick enough to catch it even though set at .80 for 4th and 5th
