Default FRST EFI

Hi,

Going to get a FRST setup and have heard it's best to get an OFAB setup to run more boost? But you can mod OFAC to run as OFAB or something? Is that right?

Also, if I dont have edis module, map sensor etc off th one engine does it matter if I use these parts from another engine? Not clued up on the efi side of things

Ta very much

1.1 bar but I seem to remember Stu saying this was an easily sortable software issue.

I have a spare OFAB and Map sensor. OFAB uses the Weber type map sensor hence you can run more boost with it.
