Well, from what I have read about everyone else's setups, they have a bit more information. Plus, the wastegate is what actually "sets" the amount of boost that the turbo will push to the intake before releaseing.

Anyway, "some Ford FMU"? Hrm.. you'd need to be more specific.

let me be a little more specific about my set up, i have a saab 900 or 9000 T3 turbo, i also have the saab intercooler ,the only thing i have to control my fuel is an FMU, i dont nkow the ration its set at, but the person i got it from said it was off of a ford, i am wondering if anyone knows what the wasegate is set to and if my engine can handle it with just the FMU
