You will still be boosting 14-15 psi with the M2 ECU. I won't lower your boost.

My car was boosting to 15 1/2 psi with the M2 ECU, Cheap Bastard Intake, M2 DP, and Efini y pipe. The CB had not been installed yet, or it may have gone to 16 psi.

I immediately installed a manual boost controller.

When you say the clutch lasts until around 300hp - do you mean RWHP?

The stock clutch is good up to around 300rwhp. Nothing definite there, but most people seem to have the stock one fail around and above that number.

My bad man I can't read :\ Thanks...

Yeah I know I plan on making a manual boost controller and setting it to 12psi if I am having boost issues come installation time.

You may want to check SCC Rx-7 project car out if you haven't already. The write up is pretty informative re: M2 and mods.
Personally, I like their philosophy of being somewhat conservative in the management of mods. To me as I get thru the initial reliability mods (AST & RAD then DP, Intake, CB) the M2 ECU will get a lot of consideration.
Then again what are your goals? Seems to me it doesn't take much to blow an engine under the right (wrong!) conditions.
you consider intake and exhaust to be reliability mods?

not offense, just that sounds a bit off,
from what I know, having intake AND exhaust is supposed to actaully be dangerous, and less reliable.

downpipe is a good reliaility mod tho.
