The 3 port holds and controlls boost better............you have to get the ECU mapped to use it though

Ok when u say holds boost better like how? Would I gain any extra bhp or better boost at topend? Yeah I'm getting Duncan to map my car on Tuesday. I have asked him before but never got a reply back as I know he is really busy so thought I would ask on here.

When Bob Rawle fitted ny 3 port and mapped my car he gave me a technical explanation as to how it all works and the advantages of using the 3 port..............I wish I had paid more attention. LOL

If Bob Rawle says it's better then that's good enough for me

As above i was told there better as well,aparently you get a quicker spool less boost spikes and there easier for the mapper to set up,i didnt bother listening for the reasons why either but it sounds good to me.
