Default what is the difference between ofab and ofac

and how easy is it to link thes efi setups to an after market ecu for big bhp?

does the lack of phase sensor have an effect on performance at high revs?

thanks.

All i know is that ofab is easyer to tune and run higher boost as it's the earlier type and you can use 2/3bar map sensor's as long as you have the car mapped for it

i was told that the early frst had the ofab ecu and people were winding the boost up to well over a bar and killin engines and trying to get new on warenty so the introduced the ofac which was limited to 14.7 psi or 1 bar of boost and wouldnt let you run more that is what i was told i have no idea weather it is corect or not

Was just about to say this. Sure Stu from MSD posted the the limit was a software one rather than a hardware one and it was something they'd now overcome. Haven't got any details as I'm still only running mine at 14psi, for now
