Gotcha

Is WMI easy to fit/ maintain, as I have been browsing the web and it looks to be quite cheap to buy..

The reason.............looks very nice, it has been recommended by Alex at AKS and it has a wire out to ground the N75 so I can map upto the WMI then if it runs out or blocks it cuts the N75.

I am sure others do this.

I may get the readout that can you can plug into a laptop to see how its running as well. :popcornsoda:

Timing is the primary concern but cutting boost is a start.  However, the ECU may still try to achieve its target timing which would still be a potential for engine damage.  Depending on what your remapper does, cutting boost will send the ecu into limp mode which removes timing also.

Only reason I got a snow kit as i did not want 100% injection down low only 20% and 100% at 20+ psi. 

I am not sure if the others do that?

Most have a rising rate maf based controller as far as I know.

I prefer static/constant injection with a remap that adjusts the other parameters.  I don't like putting extra controllers in the system that confuses the ECU.

Its very difficult for the ECU to control lambda with a rising rate controller in the mix.  The ECU is constantly adjusting and never running optimally.
