Default Electronic or manual??

Hi guys,

Gotta a bit of spare cash, and was looking for a few gizmos for my classic wagon.
So was thinking of a boost controler, but what's best?
Manual or electronic??
It's got a tdo5 fitted.

A boost controller might just mean you need way more than a spare bit of cash at some point down the road. Do it right or not at all IMO!

Depends what MY you have?

Yeah as already said, a boost controller might mean some hefty bills later! Can't really just pump up the boost without causing damage eventually.

Burn its a 96 wagon, but not sure what engine it has.
It's clearly had a rebuild at some stage ( can see colour difference from heads )
It's got a fifth injector hole, was told by previous owner its a sti engine.
But someone one here said the RA came with the fifth hole!!
