before i make the purchase

What do you guys think of a used Pettit Unlimited ECU for this setup:

93 base model, downpipe, catback, m2 cold air intake

Aside from letting me handle the 13-14psi of boost I'm experiencing, what else should I expect from this ECU?
Thanks

its a great ecu
I ran the pettit unlimited with

pettit streetported motor, intake, dp, mp, cb, fuel pump, non sequential @12 psi with no problems

it cant handle 13-14psi safely the stock injectors will be near maxed out at 14psi
you need to lower the boost with a controller to run 12psi max with that ecu

careful dont boost above 10psi until you get that ecu...blown motors suck and it will happen at that boost

the powerfc is really cool but it requires tuning with every change in mods...the pettit is like get in and go

You might want to get an intercooler when you go above 12 psi, from what most people have said that is about the effective max of the stock ic. Just food for thought, blown motors are no fun.
