Fuel Cut or Ignition Cut?

I like the idea of an ignition cut, but I have heard that a fuel cut is easier on the car.. doesn't make sense cutting fuel under boost. Also hitmans base 13bt e6k map is set for fuel cut.

i tried ignition cut, and its very smokey. i think the ignition cut also washes the oil off the face of the rotor housing and prolly ditutes your oil more. it doesnt seem like a huge deal either way though

if you cut the ignition and still have fuel going into the combustion camber you run the risk of detontion.

Wouldn't fuel cut underboost do something similiar? And I don't have omp, premix. How would fuel going into combustion chamber cause det?

I run an e6k 13bt frontmount 15psi on stock turbo's and 550/1600
