It's probably possible to hack it and replace resistors to change the boost pressure, when it kicks in, and the knock sensitivity like the APC etc. but don't think anyone has done that.

The GFB boost controller probably can interface with a wideband sensor because it ain't going to do anything with the stock narrowband sensor.

No way will you get near 190bhp without increased boost. 3" exhaust probably yields a tiny bit, stock gutted airbox is fine, and wasted spark doesn't really do anything
Maybe some online fans are a little optimistic haha I am not chasing power either way. Ill get the car running as best as it possibly can and thats that Too many miles for messing around lots
