Even if I bought the dekas, springs and retuned it might not gain too much more.Springs are 100,9xxkms old :'( Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/21890-wa-spotted-chit-chat-thread/page/1934/#findComment-1057805 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose I'll let the inj's sit around in case I get a new daily driver one day.

China spec <3The overboost valve is handy for us auto boys on gear change. I'm yet to log mine after tune actually...could do that tomorrow and see what it hits.Would be good for longevity.

You may feel a sudden surge or a greater induction noise. For safety just get Simon to fit one. My car will still overboost in 6th gear at 2000rpm. But in 5th and below above 2500 rpm it doesnt overboost just sits on 16PSI. BEST mod ever. My car is manual. At least with the auto guys when you put your foot down it drops gears.

Flutter was epic, as was my puckering at seeing the inaccurate gauge reading of 25PSI @_@Exhaust drone fix or overboost valve....decisions decisions!
