no mate 202hp was the print out from corten miller performance with 240 torque ,im lead to believe the 701 block is from a legacy usdm ,not really 100% sure but been told can only handle low boost ,the car was bought about 6 mths ago and found out later it had a 2.5 fitted.
I'm boosting about 0.7bar which is pretty low so im really interested to see the results after new ecu and remap.

Which i know FMIC will be laggy,due pipework,but i don't recognize any lag on my WRX.STi7/8 will be better option for you,this TMIC is good up to 400BHP.
I recommend and most people recommend,if you are running more than 400BHP buy FMIC,but under 400BHP stick with STi7/8 TMIC.
I brought mine due bonnet....

The money your going to spend on a simtek, id buy some more bolt on mods(slightly bigger turbo like a VF28/VF34/35) and get your ecutek tweaked, Simtek would be great once you go over 350bhp and if you want to go mafless. But dont forget if you have a UK car your going to be pushing the engine and gearbox at anything over 350bhp.

Sorry but my last car ran Simtek aswell as present and both have knock control, by CEL dim flash to bright flash depending how much knock.
Simtek imho is brill value for money, but as said only really when pushing 390 +

Wait until you have new turbo(paying twice is not very wise),because pay again for tweaking map 150£ is big luxus

Actual knock control retards the timing when detected. There should be a release at some point adding this feature, along with idle control.
