also means joining them together you will be able to do fast anf furious style reversing as will allow full boost ing reverse lol

lol

edit- apart from the obvious of having more boost in them gears. I mean is it worth it, or is it going to want to spin like mad?

mostly, its not compatable with the f20 box as there's no switch.....

the mod is done when people don't use the f28..... or you just get monumental wheelspin in 1st, fine for mcdonalds carparks, but not for your tyres

if i had an f28 i wouldnt bother as it will just want to spin

the time it is done as mogli says is when you run an f20 otherwise as there is no switch you would only get low boost in all gears so by joining the wires together you get full boost

when the engine was in my mates 2wd calibra the f28 used to spin the front wheels with the boost reduction so honestly cant see a reason for doing it if your running an f28 you wont be able to use the extra boost in that gear anyway

so..... if you fit a F20 to a LET and dont join the wires you wont get full boost?
