Default boost controller

do my standard 2006 sti blobs ecu have a boost controller built in or is an electronic boost controller id need to add? I do have a gizmo 1 left over from my mr2

I just fancy a little bit more power but nothing mad, so what would be a safe boost level if I can use my ebc?

The have a boost control solenoid which is controlled by the ecu.
You can fit your ebc to get more boost, however, i would strongly recommend not doing it, get your car mapped and the boost will be raised then, these cars need a map after every mod or tweek to retain reliability

The standard ECU can be mapped but 350 will cost you a fair amount of cash, these engines aren't tough like the 3S-GTE in the MR2.

Depends how much you have to spend really dude....

Decat and remap will see 340, and people are running 450bhp onwards on these engines in standard form and mapped professionally, speak to andrew carr about carberry rom
