Re: need help turboing this baby...
 

if you are scared to tune your car yourself.
I suggest this route: apex1 vafc, and some dsm 450cc injectors.
*vortech FMU and a missing link.
or just leave it stock and don't worry about it

if you decide to do it yourself . the right way is still gonna cost you money. you will need a laptop, wideband, chip burner. egt. you will need to convert to obd1 and run a obd1 ecu/chipped.

if you chose to do it professionally, the price might be the same as doing it yourself/ because you wont have to buy the laptop and ----.

It's a sad day when I'd say I'd rather see a fmu and missing link than an afc setup. As long as you stay under 6 pounds you shouldn't have an issue with the fmu :P

what if i get this :

and a harness would i have to touch it again or would it be set nicely...?

Re: need help turboing this baby...
 

Good deal. Make him a best offer of 130 or so. You might not be set for life with his basemap but it SHOULD suit you well for a minute.

Re: need help turboing this baby...
 

and just take it to a local tunning shop get then to tune it right?

screw that im just getting a piggy back i rekon, only $150AU for the unit and just get it tuned... less mucking around if u ask me

Re: need help turboing this baby...
 

Huh a piggy back? We didnt ask you actually.

We know what were talking about, so keep thinking of boomerangs and kangaroos and leave the car ---- to us, and listen, mate.

Re: need help turboing this baby...
 

ok then... if that makes u happy :) im just asking for help...

and leave my poor kangaroo alone... :P

anyway i had a pm from someone on here who said he can write up a basemap that will last my a while (untill i modify engine differently from when basemap was made) do you guys think this is a good option

Re: need help turboing this baby...
 

ROFLMAO!!! You still should get it tuned, and to run the basemap you still need an ecu that'll run it.

Re: need help turboing this baby...
 

Hes going full strength!! Thats...

FMU
AFC Hack
Chipped Ecu
+lots of JB weld

Re: need help turboing this baby...
 

yeah i kinda thought having a basemap written for my turbo specs and burnt for me would still mean i needed to retune it once its in the car not just leave it at that...

thnx for clearing that up
