    not a good idear rickie as the limp mode tells you something is wrong with the engine
    and limp mode is connected to many sensors

    As above but if you are thinking of NADS then have a search as there
    is heaps and I mean heaps written on the Subject, check anything written by Chaz Yellowfoot[Guru]
    First thing to do would be fit Boost and EGT[pyro] gauges on a pillar pod. then take it from there with your Dawes
    and needle valve ,catch can and erg block,
    PM Mudski as he carries most bits you want

    Are you talking about the voltage adjustment to the MAF ?

    Bit confused but that's not hard to do.
    Your Dawes valve will limit your boost ,thus reducing lime mode

    Will need more info

    Well, head to Jaycar and purchase JDVM (Jaycar digital voltage modifier) and hand controller, assemble the units and than start manipulating MAF voltages. Good stuff but needs to be done carefully.
    If you just want to eliminate limps altogether than installing some sort of voltage "clipper" which keeps MAF voltages bellow 3.99V at all times should do the trick however you will still get what is termed cold limps because there are some instances where ECU will react differently.
    JDVM will assist to manipulate the MAF voltage as required so there will be no limps whatsoever. It takes time to get right and as side bonus you can manipulate he voltage in such way that you can change AFR (air fuel ratio) as well so it will get addictive to try to "squeeze" as much as you can out of it.
