You're welcome to try mine, we can fit it take it for a spin, and if it's not any faster than the current one swap it out again

the picture above is the esl live board the early esl boards are the same as in this link http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/subaru-imp...item2a164fa821

and for some reason people wrongly advertise them as live mappable!

12 psi is about standard mate for a v1/2 JDM IIRC. Chips run 14psi+ depending on the supporting mods and condition of the car Never had a UK so not sure on the wires mate

mmmm if its ok mate think i will try yours and see if there is an improvement,yeah i agree my93wrx jdm was boosting 1.1(14psi-16 i think) bar with a standard z4 so 12psi with a chip seems low
