Turbo kit without electronic tuning?

So yeah, everyone is all "zomg, no tuning available for the n/a 2.0!"... Whatever happened to the old tried and true FMU and *gasp* conservative boost method. I'm sure a 5-6 pound boost from a well sized turbo would make amazing power with the compression these motors are pushing around. Hell, there were so many kits released with FMU's in the early Honda days, tuning the ECU was unheard of. I know we have a plastic manifold, but is an SDS style Extra Injector Controller that bad an idea for those who really want to burn the wick at both ends?

Alright... now who's the first guinea pig?
