The ML is a FCD. It prevents the stock MAP sensor from seeing anything above atmospheric pressure. If the MAP value maxes out the stock ECU will fuel cut (at least on most years).

I use none of the above.

if you have a simple set up the ML will be a good choice.

This is going to sound stupid, but if you guys don't use a FCD, what do you use to keep the ecu from seeing the added pressure.

If it's a 95 becuase it doesn't give a shit about positive intake manifold readings.

I use one i made.......some years dont need a FCD. 95's and a few 96's dont care about 4.70+ map voltage. Megasquirt does not require a FCD.
