Default Boost on SD

Can you run boost on a SD car? Cuz you would still have correct vacuum until you went full throttle.......

theoretically, since it gets its a/f maps from the map sensor you would think you could... obviously you'd need a map sensor that reads boost as well... then again youd need more then a 19 lb injector, which the stock comp cant deal with... so negative ghost rider

nitrous on the other hand....

well, there is another option but kinda costly on a learning curve perspective for the novice....you could use a Megasquirt tuner set up ...I've read alot about these in recent days to try and understand it's theroy of operation...and sounds like a good deal for speed density tuning if you have the patience it takes to put one together and learn the program and different tuning tables

SD > MAF

Megasquirt is definatly the way to go if you plan for some serious mods down the road
