Turbo kit without electronic tuning?

Negative Nancy's gotta hate, I guess.

If I did do anything any time soon, I'll throw a nice 50 shot on her and see what happens at the track. Maybe I'd break 15's? lmao

what did yours run at the track

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?

Unless you were intending on running a separate injector in the cold pipe, this isn't going to work. Remember, this is a direct injected engine and you're not going to control your injector's with this controller.

You would also be choking the shit out of the turbo because you can't change the diameter of your MAF with out needing to re-cal (which we can't)

your CL/OL transition points, timing tables just to name a few other items.

Not to mention the driveability of the car will mostly likely be poor.

mine is already almost into the 15's at the track so I would say that was pretty good for stock
