before hondata and crome and all that good stuff, check valves for fish tanks were used to not let the map sensor to "see" boost. the fmu was used to add fuel for the setup.

Oh, a check valve. I had never heard it called a fish filter before.

$700 isnt a bad price, assuming the WG and turbo aren't absolute ****. If that and/or the manifold was cracked, the price would be half that.
