Isn't the whole point of this integrated circuit thing to put a bunch of hardware all in one little package? Integration also brings its own benefits, at least in theory. If you were to put an electronic wastegate or do an N54-style vacuum wastegate that is normally fully open but closes under vacuum integrating everything allows you to do tricks like full wastegate bypass at cold start to warm the cats or in eco-mode under a certain torque request to reduce exhaust pumping resistance. Or full bypass as a limp mode if a certain amount of knock is detected. Or managing the compressor so it never reaches the surge point. None of this is strictly necessary per se but standalones generally have good enough boost control. PID control isn't exactly some crazy difficult problem to solve. -

Hello everybody. I have no idea where to get a ethanol tester besides online and want to run a e30 mix in my bmw m2. In order for my calculator to work i need to know what ethanol rating the e85 pump is and this is my local station would anyone know or is it negligible to find specifically. Thanks🙂 -
Sometimes a piece of hardware built to do one job excellently, can be better than a piece of hardware trying to do 20 jobs "well enough". -
My brother's old Pulsar had approx 10 year old tyres (crappy Zeix). The sidewalls split on all four tyres in the space of a week. I'd be paranoid on 10 year old tyres.
