I am feeling the RTEK 1.5 would be the way to go. It eliminates the code in the computer that would require an FCD.

The main question I have is: If the system boosts over stock levels, let's say to 10psig, will the RTEK recognize that there is actually 10 psig and retard timing? Or will it just see a max of 9 psig and that is it?

What I am trying to get at is what is the max guage pressure that the computer can recognize with the RTEK 1.5? 9 psig, 12 psig, 15 psig?

If the RTEK equiped computer can see 15 psig, what will it do? (add fuel, retard timing, etc...?)

Thanks!

Rob
