ECU - with and without??
Turbo Mini Forums

How come some setups use ECU's and some dont?

may seem stupid, but is it something as simple as a carb engine and injection engine?

Basically it was used by rover to limit boost at low RPM's, where huge torque is created that puts a strain on gearboxes.


In short, make sure your gearbox is in good nick, which it needs to be regardless. And fit a bleed valve or stronger actuater instead of the ECU.

The search function on this web site is quite good (better than some other forums) so have a read of some older posts if you want to learn more.

Where in Wales are you from?

bridgend. you in wales too?

what bits are in either set up that arent in the other?

I'm in Cardiff.
Jimster is in brigend and a few others on here are from wales as well.

If your looking for parts, giz a shout.

Back to your question, the only other part you don't need is the solinoid that the ECU controls inorder to bleed air.
