Default Do you mean a Boost Controller? Because AFC means Air Fuel Controller.
As for boost controllers they are not the best thing to use on a small turbo setup and very bad to use on a non dbw 1.8t.

Yes, that's what I meant. Can you use it on a 1.8T non-DBW? TIA.

Default Does not work well on a non dbw car. If you turn the boost up the car runs rich/lean
during wot if you turn the boost up/down.

DBW = Drive By Wire, referring to the throttle setup of the newer 1.8t engines.
