Important advice: don't install a fuel cut defenser (FCD). It just lies to the ECU by telling it you are running less boost than you really are. That doesn't work very well, since it will lean out the mixture as the boost increases.
Upgrade the ECU (chip, replace with PowerFC, etc.) to eliminate the fuel cut in a safer manner.
