Default gone turbo

Almost got all of my parts to boost my y7. My question is do I have to chip my ecu for my dsm injector and resistor box or can I just use my stock ecu and get a AFC for control thanks and by the way love the site!!!

you dont have to, but you should.
sell the afc for more than you paid, and its all good

that depends... are you obd0, or obd2? if youre obd2, then you would have to convert to obd1 anyways. but obd0, you could chip most ecus.

oh, that kinda sux.
as far as conversions go, i've never done one. i believe xenocron has a harness kit.
and grom what i know the p29 &p30 are like the "universal donors". i'm sure others will work too, but i don't know exactly wich ones.

Get a P06 (obd1 nonvtec), injectors, a chip, and a adapter harness. If you know anyone who has a wideband O2 you can use the AFC to dial in the AFR's. Otherwise get a cheap street tune on Crome and use the AFC to pay for the tune.
