XR6T-CTOWN Member 128 Member For: 17y 1m 23d Gender: Male Location: C-town, Syd Posted 26/05/09 08:37 AM Share Posted 26/05/09 08:37 AM Hey dudes, a friend who works at autobahn said someone came in with a BF 6T and wanted an electronic boost controller. I was always under the impression that 6T's cant use them, something to do with the computer or whatever which is why they have the flash tune boxes. Is that right or can we indeed install electronic boost controllers instead of flash tunes? if so what are the pro's and con's?cheers Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/57989-boost-controller/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure someone will know.Still a bit more investigation before I hand over the cash.

Definitely no good on an otherwise stock vehicle. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/57989-boost-controller/#findComment-881663 Share on other sites More sharing options...
