The ONLY FCD worth getting for the gen2, IMHO, is $60 cheaper than the HKS and has infinite adjust ability within the range of the stock MAP sensor. So anywhere between 12.1psi to 17.8psi.
In face, i'll be ordering a Twos R Us FCD in the next couple of weeks.
No, infact a jdm ecu should also have speed cut as well.
Pulling the vacuum line, plugging it. Then leaving the MAP sensor end open, lets the ECU read atmospheric pressure, 100% of the time.
Pulling the electrical connector, disables the MAP sensor and causes the ECU to enter limp mode.
If you're friend removed the vacuum line, and his car ran like crap, his issues lie elsewhere. A gen2 should not "run like crap" with the vacuum line pulled.
I, as well as countless others, have ran this way for years.

Apparently the place that did my rebuild didn't screw on the crank case pressure sensor on the driver side of the motor and oil and vac has been leaking out now and then, they found the leak in 5 minutes (with me standing over them poking around with them) and tighten it, and cleaned off the motor and trans to make it shiney again, that is why my idle was off.
BUT, i figured out why my brand new timing belt is shreading itself to death, i think they left off the Timing belt guide so the belt is walking off the cam gears and rubbing on the timing belt cover, bad stuff. needless to say im pissed, i growned the 2 until i get an new belt and this stupid shop gets my car into there to fix what they ****ed up! and he thinks it's ok to charge me 3 hours labor!
if they pull everything off and there is no guide on there, im gonna have a fit like a 3 year old in a candy store
i hate shops that think they know how to work on "anycar" im at my wits end with this shop, i just want my mr2 running normally and not falling appart every month like it has been. Stupid asses couldn't even put a spark plug without braking it.
