buying the FCD

i am gonna snag the fcd (fuel cut defenser) for my FD. u guys think its a good investment. im pretty sure it will stop the bucking problem ive had at 6200-6500. i think the fuel should flow better with that on. Feedback please

NO! A fuel-cut defenser does not work for FDs. If you are hitting fuel-cut because you are overboosting, then fix the problem correctly. Either get an ECU that can handle increased boost levels or lower your boost levels back to stock with a boost controller.

How do you like spending 5 grand on a motor/install? The FCD should help greatly if thats your goal.

Power FC or Haltec E11 please, if your running into fuel something is obviously wrong. BTW: anyone figure out why they did not jsut do a spark cut instead of fuel cut??? you get the same result but no engine damage!
