listen to mase he knows whats up in the tuning aspect's. yes a FMU is better than no fuel magement, but its not a good unit. How can a fmu work on so many different applications? every engine and turbo setup has different needs. A fmu doesnt know if you have a 2.0L gt40r powered car or a 1.6L 14b turbo d16. It just goes off reference. They suck big time. Use one of you want to be a retard.

back when I was young and stupid I used one of these things

I'll say 1 thing

diaphragms rip easy especially at higher boost levels

get a programmable ECU, independently controlling timing and fuel is a MUST for any boosted application.
