no, the boost should still be ecu controlled if its not been disconnected. if you looped the pipe from the turbo outlet straight to the actuator then it would boost to what the actuator spring is set to

Rob,

on the subject of ECU`s and what we discussed, I have an answer for why an Ecutec remap on mine will not require a boost controller.
Basically, they have now re-written the boost control tables within the existing ECU to counteract boost creep and the need for an EBC. The map has been written to take into consideration hot, cold weather etc.
A ralliart ECU does not have a boost control map in it, hence the need to control it with a seperate EBC.

So, im booked in for next friday (15th of June) :-)

Awesome stuff dude Thanks for the response, now kicking myself for having blown 350quid :-)
Promise one thing, once you're remaped, you get your ninja butt up here and take me for a spin
I'll be calling you on friday to hear all about it 8)
