Uberdata question?
 
What's going on. I got a chipped P28 ECU from projektteg for my d16y8 that I was going to be building a turbo kit for. I was just trying to find out if it is ok to use this ecu without putting the turbo on and also the bigger injectors that I had him set it to. I was going to put in DSM 450cc injectors, but I don't know if they are ok to use on a stock motor for long. Can anyone give me any type of advice on if I would have a problem with running the ecu on the stock injectors? Thanks.

is the chip for boost? if so, cut the jumper so it will run the stock p28 on the board.
if your car is not turbo, dont bother putting in the 450s.

if the ecu was chipped use with the dsm 450cc's, you should just install the 450ccs and run it. You'll just be in vaccuum. Unless projekteg put a swith or dipswitch in for J1, then you can just unswitch it it and you'll be running off the stock ecu.

you can run the ecu and the 450's with the stock motor with the boost map with no problems, however, it definitely won't run as smooth as just leaving it stock until it's time for turbo.

Re: Uberdata question?
 
as far as not running smooth, what type of problems may come up?

it's just a basemap, it's not tuned, so of course it's not going to drive as good as a stock ecu (will run rich, get not so good gas mileage, not a perfect idle, etc.). you won't gain anything by running the 450's and an untuned basemap on a stock motor, just wait til you put the turbo on ;)

alright, thanks for the info projekteg. Definitely appreciated.
