Default having trouble with ford turbo ecu bullshit

im stockpiling parts to turbo my spare ford inline 6... injectors, turbo, flange, all i have to do is weld up a y-pipe with the manifolds, and merge them into the t3 flange. swap injectors, and plumb (outside of reconnecting the harness)

it seems there isn't a market for ford inline ecu's... and they don't appear to have a map sensor. and, i have no fmu...

anyone know if i can chip the stock ecu? it has a board tab with some terminals, supposedly aftermarket chips plug into this, but they wont work for boost.

any ideas?

I'm pretty sure that motor uses a mass air flow sensor. I know you can get setups to recalabrate the mass air for bigger injectors, but as for tuning, I don't think I can tell you much. Mabe a megasquirt system would work? I don't....there sure seem to be alot of GM boosters out there that use megasquirt....from what I understand, it seems to be pretty universal.

no MAS it's a '90. that didn't start until the last few years of the motor (93 and up i think for the 4.9 to get mas)
