I wouldn't bother..........its asking for trouble.

If it was for real, the picture of it would show it in a subaru......the picture shown is of it fitted in some sort of Ford!!

Dont bother mate, £10 for a boost controller..............sounds to dodgey.

This isn't a boost controller, its an AFR 'FRIG' which imho is not a good idea unless you wanna lunch your engine - you would be best off putting the money towards a knocklink or a lambdalink tbh

This 'FRIG' is similar to the other one available on ebay but instead of using just a resistor this one is variable resistor (adjustable) Bad Idea IMHO
