Default Fuel Cut Strategy of the ECU - Any thoughts?

Awhile back (EnDyn Board), I was reading on how cutting fuel in a high-vacuum situation is not ideal (as the Honda ECU does do this when you let of the throttle and coast) for a turbo. Reason being, was that cutting fuel could lead to a lean situation and blow your engine. Timing being cut/pulled back, apparently, was the key to keep things in check in this area.

Is this a real issue that needs to be addressed for the people running the stock ECU and fuel mod devices?

Good point. The pintle style (stock) injectors aren't that quick and can leak a bit during deceleration fuel cut-off.

Easy fix, get some RC (Lucas) disc type injectors. They have quicker response and won't leak.

I used to run my GSR with only the resonator and it would burble on deceleration with stock injetors but that stopped when I ran RC injectors.
