Default FMU or Chipped ECU

hey guys i jus finished up my hmt setup:
d16z6 motor
lebaron te04h turbo wit hf manifold
cx racin 2.5 charge pipes
xspower fmic
ebay bov.
stock injectors but also have dsm blue tops
walbro 255 fuel pump

i jus recently finished puttin this on my car started it and took it around the block and back home. my concern is engine managment and wonderin if i could get away wit runin a fmu. my friend has one that i can get it from.

or

run a chipped ecu thats been tuned for a gsr wit cams
also wonderin wat would happen if i run the chipped ecu wit the fmu?
and if i get the fmu would i run the stock p28 ecu?

This is the reason I don't come on here anymore!!!

Did all the good post from the original HMT get deleted or are these noobs not searching??

DO NOT use n FMU especially if you are going to run blue tops and a 255 walboro. Don't be a cheap retard, buy the ECO have it chipped and tuned.


OR.......
Get a rope!

Don't forget the 10ohm resisters for the blue tops.

Best thing to do on this site is search, I'm not sure what you'll find though since they changed the format of the site. It use to have tonnes of info and great builds. Lots of guys on here will help if you ask the right questions and do your homework.

Good luck with the build.
