Default will fmu work for 7psi or would i be better off chippin?

ok jdm d15 vtec im planning on running an ihi rhb5 turbo off a mx6/probe (turbo is tiny) and i dont know if i would be better off spending 100$ for an fmu or just going ahead and sending the ecu to be chipped.im trying to get out cheap but i dont want it to suck

chipping is cheaper than an FMU in the short run too.

FMU $90- 100

Getting your ecu chipped from members of this board is like $75 IIRC

If you've done any research at all, you'd know that we're all gonna suggest the FMU.

i cant believe people still ask this question. i chipped my ecu for like $20 and traded an ecu for a chip burner. can a question be added to the registration that says "you will be banned for asking about FMU's, do you agree?" damn NigNogs
