Just kidding brick, get a boost gauge in there then........ ####!

Box is good if you only plan on running it on level 2 or 3, but you cannot run it on 6 or 7 all the time and get away with it. David Blankenship blew his engine with a box on the dyno at Albans with the box set to 7. He says they only saw 1000*F on the pyro but once it hit full boost and the box started to adjust the fuel and ###### timing it built the heat so quick it fried the motor. Scored 4 cylinders and cracked the head in 5 places. With my big turbo now and all the fuel im pushing my pyro barely gets to 1100 on a long hard pull.

If I was pushing something it would be used ECM's and those are hard to come by. I do know guys who will pay well for em though. Only way to really "Unbridge" a cat

I tried selling some 6NZ ecm's to guys with bridge motors, but its like they dont believe the hype, and they wanna stick with the crappy low nox, retarded timing, out of whack MBN ecm's.

I even tried to sell my hot 6NZ ecm with trim codes, 2300rpm program, and FLS set to 127. No dice, they are all scared to mess with the motor.
