Hey guys I came across this video on youtube and was wondering what peoples opinions are from this site. Basically the guy recording is out to prove that no engine management or anything along those lines are required to run boost on our 420a. If you got a few minutes have a look and post some opinions! Advantages or disadvantages?

What about tuning though? If you got cams and other mods how would you take advantage of that without a tuning device? This guy says he has "stage 4" cams and other things too.

96's do. 95's don't.
I don't know what the guy is trying to prove. We've been turbocharging 420A's since before most of the engine management that we have today even existed.
My first fuel setup was a 12:1 rising rate FMU and a Walbro, on stock injectors.

I didn't think you would. This is just another case of somebody with just enough information to look like a fool.
