"Anti fuel cut box"?

Hey i want to run a boost controller and stock turbo but i have a problem wiwth fuel cut. I hear they make a box that you can install to tell the ecu not to enguage the fuel cut. Anyone have one they want to sell or does anyone know where to get one?????

Fuel Cut Defenser (FCD), but it's going to lead you to blow your engine if you don't have upgraded injectors/fuel pump/ecu and you start turning the boost up (or boost creeping due to a tiny wastegate).

An FCD also tricks the ecu into thinking manifold pressure is lower, so timing is incorrectly adjusted. You will need something like a apexi SAFC to correct for this (~$400).

You can get one from racingbeat.com, but honestly spend a little extra and get your ECU Rtek7 chipped (http://www.pocketlogger.com/index.ph...ge=1&ecu=S4T2). $95 - $125 depending on which one you get and lots of other great features.
