Default what is the cheapest fuel cut and why does mine cut in at 1bar

i turned my boost upto 1 bar and it kept cutting out (fuel cut) i m led to believe they can run 1.1 before cutting? i just want to run a bar not all the time just for drag is this safe if i get a defender?

Fuel cut is at 1.25bar IIRC 19.some psi. Most probably your gauge is out, Keep an eye on things with a knocklink.

Very early WRXs do cut at 1.0bar, so do early Legacies.

cheap fuel cut? a one way valve t-d into the map sensor with a bleed hole

not to be recommend but has been known for getting a legacy to run 21 psi on a td05.. <shakes head>

zener diode is another way.. ask john banks
