Let me get this stragiht... you got your turbo setup on, and your driving it around on 7psi with no fuel managment? and you are wondering why you are throwing check engine lights?

1. Do not drive your car without fuel managment or.. this will happen (see below)

http://draglab.com/20002002/blown/bb161.jpg

2. Your check engine is coming on because the stock map sensor is freaking out seeing boost, and throwing a Map sensor fault. This will make the car run like ---- when the DTC is triggered.

and to fix these 2 things...

1. Send your ECU to one of our Chippers (I recommend xenocron) to get your ecu chipped and get setup with a semi decent base map.

2. A set of DSM 450cc injectors and resistor pack.

Until then I dont want to see any more posts about you driving your car at 7psi and dont waste your time with a FMU.

Good luck,
Jeff

You don't need a resistor pack since I'm assuming you drive an ef/crx. As for injectors just stick to DSMs since they're tried and true, plus with the DSMs they're plug and play.
