If you use a greddy bcc for the jza80 it will work sweet, you just have to tune the voltage clamp to whatever is right for your car - was 4.35v in my surpa.

I'm using a Gizzmo FCD.
Doesn't need any settings etc. just wire it in (3 wires from memory) and she's all go.

i did a test with the hks fcd in set at value 3 an it allows about 4.22 volts to go through at full throttle fuel cut is at 4.3 volts so i guess its ok

I don't see how any FCD type device could be described as "ok", they allow you to run more boost without injecting more fuel, which is a sure-fire way to cook your engine. IMO a better use of the money would be to find a way to limit the boost (which is pretty easy, just add more backpressure to the exhaust in most cases) or save up for an aftermarket ECU which will allow you to run the higher boost safely. But hey, that's just me.

i also found out that the soarers run the injectors at 92% at 12.3psi an 100% over 13.2psi i also saw a soarer dyno at 14 psi with a fcd and it was running really rich will take car to dyno next week an see if its running lean or rich
