I think that it could be done with a simple switch for testing and you have a manual DFCO then and a kill switch. Or you can geek more and build a fairy simple electronic device with a switch for getting "throttle pedal released" signal and a signal from an alternator to get revs/min signal. Then if you have revs like above 1000 and throttle pedal is released it gives DFCO signal to the solenoid to cut the fuel off.
Worth investigation then:0

Thanks for the info

Also, going to phone my tame mechanic to get a quote for doing the timing belt- want that done before I start playing with boost and fuelling

they will come after the suspsneison is replaced (possibly this weekend!)
