I've got a Blitz unit on mine. Picked mine up second hand quite pricey new but works well.
Just make sure whatever one you get is high boost capable ie 2 bar+ .

Also worth considering aftermarket ECU with boost control built in, much more money but a nice upgrade.

I have a Gizmo one which works well, not to expensive and easy to setup.

I like these. Not the cheapest, but work really well.

Does the l8 need remapping for that? My Amal valve has broken and can't find a new replacement and have been looking at the mac valve

Fair few amal valves on the Facebook cosworth pages.
may aswell stick to the ford system if you can?.
Think they tend to be about £25
If you don't use Facebook I don't mind sorting one and sending it on etc.
