Bing has been running the Map ECU in his car for some time. It is my understandnign that he is less than happy with it. I know for one he has had ECU learning problems. But I think there may be other issues.

Perhaps the Map ECU2 would work better.

He's not comparing it to anything, my point is that while it may work fine with some cars, I know of at least two people that have had the mapecu in a GS300 and had issues with it. Bing is on this board from time to time and Seloc you can probably PM him

Ah alright, I think i'll just stick with the SAFC for now when i'm only running in the single digits. Then once I decide to go up to 10-14 psi i'll be getting a stand alone...

I have a GS400 but have run the SAFC up to 17 psi. I think you will be okay.
