Default starting homemade turbo, fuel manegment?

heres what I have so far
STD manifold
2nd gen eclipse turbo
1st gen eclipse BOV
front mount intercooler
and the piping will be all custom
I also have, but not sure if I should use, first gen blue top eclipse injectors
If I only plan to run the stock boost for the turbo, around 6psi, can I get away with using just an FMU, safely? what more would I need? I don't really want to do the afc hack, and I'm trying to change ECUs

At 6 psi you could do an FMU with an inline pump. You should back some timing out at the bottom though. Most people here will recommend chipping because boost is addictive and you will want more. If you chip you can always go up from there.

you would probably rather look into turboedit rather than uberdata, since you are already OBD0
