Pettit ECU+Midpipe?
Can you run the Pettit Unlimited ECU with a midpipe & boost controller without having a ported wastegate. *without experiencing dangerous boost creep.
I've searched only coming up with mixed answers for the past month...and I mean searched.
Same question w/the HKS FCON as well.(even though I've heard FCON has more aggressive timing)
Thanks.

There is no hard rule. Each car is different as to when or if it experiences creep. I knew someone who ran a full exhaust with the Pettit ECU for years without creep issues. However, he later ported his throttle body a little and started having creep issue. Unfortunately, you won't know until you try....

I ran with the Pettit Unlimited ECU. I had DP, Resonated MP, CB, FMIC and intake running 12 psi low 14 psi hi. I used a Greddy Proffec B never had any creep or problems. Car ran good.

Don't really see what the dilemma is. You either roll the dice and go ahead in running the Pettit unlimited ECU with the MP and no ported wastegate. Or make sure you've got your bases covered by porting the wastegate.

Nobody that knows what they are talking about will claim that with an ECU you will be fine. You might, but, as others have stated, the only way to find out is to try it.

Oh BTW I ran all those mods without porting my wastegate. I set up my boost controller not to come so sharp. I had full 14psi at 3200 rpms (non seq.).

Oh its not that bad to take the turbos off. You should be able to take them off and port them yourself in one day. Dont send out for porting its really not that hard and there are tons of threads on it. Its better safe then sorry even with a high flow cat.
