Marty- that's what the EBC does... it adjusts the WGs via the **** on your EBC so u do not have to do it manually underneath the car every time u want to change the boost...

On that point I'll agree with you, that for people this responsible it is a better idea to have a boost controller. I'd also say that it'd be less strenuous on the motor to run low boost part of the time and when a person wants to get gas happy just turn the boost up to the higher level.

Well an EVO in Portugal with 400 European Hp, would have 550 U.S Hp so I believe you can say a heavy tuned EVO

Anyway, I still find incredible the EVO get three cars distance to 120MPH, I would think, at least, the opposite result would be the logic, you have more 140hp under the bonet to play with.
