Fuel Cut on an N/A?

Does the N/A ECU have a fuel cut like the TII if you go over 8.9psi manifold pressure? Just wondering, cause I dont wanna find out the hard way when I finish my little turbo project. Fuel cut on a turbo N/A running over 8.9 psi = bad.

8.9 psi on an n/a engine = bad anyways unless you got an S-AFC or some other kind of fuel controller

if you dont have a fuel controller dont run over 6 psi of boost on an n/a engine, dont know about the fuel cut off though, i just know it has a fuel cut off 600rpm over the redline reading

Yes they have fuel cut, but as far as I know, its JUST rpm-based. I doubt there is a boost related fuel cut on n/a ECU's.

You suck. My car is still pulling at 8800, and the rev limiter stops all the fun.

I plan on running 8-12 psi. Of course I'll have the fuel system to support it, the S-AFC to tune it, the timing retarded, and running 93 octane + octane boost in every tank. And I plan on running 4-5 psi when I first get it running, and gradually tuning it for more and more as I get the tuning right..

I have the car dynoed and tried up to 9000 RPM, on a stock car, anything about 7K RPM is useless
