just put a turbo in my EG
I just got done with my turbo kit...This is the first time that i am boosting my car. My question is what do i need to do when it comes to ECU, also ifi put in a missing link do I take it off once I put the ECU in...What is the best to do when it comes to my ECU. Im trying to run about 9psi...My ECU is a P72..Please let me know what i need to do when it comes to tuning im new to this and im stuck...

RE: just put a turbo in my EG
first off check out the stickies in the turbo section, they have tons of info for you.
if you don't have these parts already your gonna need:
1) bigger injectors (depending on your power goals)
2) high flow fuel pump
as far as your ecu goes you can have this company chip your ecu www.phearable.netafteryou get it chipped,drive your car to reputable tuner and have them tune your car with whatever software they use (crome/neptune etc)
alsoDO NOT add the bigger injectors until after your ecu is chipped. good luck and post some pics.

FMU's are junk. if you drive around with it you could really harm your engine. just wait until the ecu is chipped and the injectors are in before driving the car. even after the ecu is chipped you have to take it easy until you get tuned.
be patient man, when going turbo you have to do it right. trust me it will be well worth the wait!!

yes you need injectors, a chipped p28 and an obd2 to obd1 conversion harness. forget the missing link its gonna be junk anyway. you will blow up your engine soon if you do not get these because your car is running like **** im guessing. anyway after you get all those you need to contact someone who tunes for your car. crome is usually the program to go if you dont have hondata.
