Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] help pls ..boost control (ebc) suitable switched live ???

got a meter and a fair idea using it, it's more of a " is it stable/consistent for ebc" heard tell of erratic behavior of ebc's .
And its always good to just be told which wire, quicker,less stress and minimum risk of error
cant beat keeping things simple..eh
