Default st200 lmrc mods?

Any way you can keep lmrc operating on mondeo 2.5L V6 mondeo to keep car constantly on 24 valves?

it always runs as 24v the imrc are flaps in the lower inlet which open up after so many rpm
nothing to do with the valves

A good mod you can do is remove the control unit from on top of the engine to the battery tray.

Yes sometimes.. I thought it was just heat from traffic at first engine struggling to get cold air but it will do it in middle of night in middle of know where.. basically at 3 1/2 thou revs it should take off noticably with almost a boost feeling, but it seems to struggle to boost, sometimes only just starting to boost as its nearly red lining..
