I just like it to be easy to use Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88130-turbosmart-boost-controller-waste-of-time/page/2/#findComment-1468932 Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means the sct eliminator & similar can be used. I'm also preatty keen to install something similar.I also found a piggy back unit that appears to be able to do a similar thing 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/88130-turbosmart-boost-controller-waste-of-time/page/2/#findComment-1468961 Share on other sites More sharing options...
