You might get this for <£100 (if I don't get there first)

How easy are they to fit / set up - what other bits do you need?

I've got the Gen II model .. took me a hour to sort it ..

Just need a load of wire to extend the ECU loom and that's it ..

Tools : screwdriver, soldering iron and wire stripper ..

Hi,

How does the gen2 differ from the gen1?

Does this need setting up on an RR, and any other mods to get it to work (e,g. FCD?).

Would you recommend buying this auction???

As I understand it, it works similarly to a G-valve in venting pressure before the actuator to up the boost before the wastegate opens. In my understanding, I would also need an FCD to up the boost properly, as the boost controller will not stop fuel cut over x psi? The boost required can be set on the AVCR and this will set a solenoid the adjust the pressure based on readings from a sensor in the manifold that measures the boost????

erm...

brain melt...

The gen 2 had more features and is blue/silver ..

Not really a RR requirement .. you can do it on your own streatch of private road.

Yeah you will need an FCD ..

It's the same as a G-valve, but it can be adjusted inside the car (and the gen2 does a few other things)

And yeah, you connect another sensor into the boost guage line .. and this goes to the controller, and on what it sees and what it is set to do, it will release air out of the solenoid ..

Thanks,

I missed the auction anyway!!!

I'm sure another will pop up soon though!
