Default 96 850R ecu in 850 Turbo?

Hey guys, looking to upgrade my ecu without buying a full tune, just wondering if anyone has done this swap and if you had any problems, or what the benefits were. Just want some input before i buy the ecu....thanks

I think it's about 1.3 more psi of boost for 30 seconds. You won't notice a huge difference. Can't think of any drawbacks. An ARD tune would offer greater bang for the buck. I think their basic one gives you about 4 psi more, which is noticeable.
