I have mine on 47ohms and have thought about increasing it to 112ohms to try to correct some of the overboost problems now that its getting colder. Adding resistance will allow the boost to be higher than what the ECU reads. The more resistance the more boost. The advantage of this is two folds one you get more boost/hp and the other is better fuel mileage. The problem is that the more resistance you add the leaner the car runs. I find it best to adjust this with a tech2 or some other way of monitoring the cars fuel curve. I also do not have a camera to take a picture of my set up to show others. Do you think you could take a picture and post it for others to see?
