Re: ecu help....
The "apexi ****" is not the way to go. There's some really really old threads on why that I'm sure the search feature can dig up.
Check with tuners around your area and see what they offer for tuning. Do it right. If you don't have extra money for decent management, you likely won't have extra money for new engines every time you blow one up either.
Or test your luck and see how it goes! GL

Re: ecu help....
john at phearable.net is awsome they are probally gunna be your best bet.
i have bought from them on several occations and have had nothing but awsome service not to mention the fastest shipping from any company ever to my house!!
pretty much there is no reason to go out and spend 200 bucks on a afc when you can get a obd1 computer and have a basemap burned on it for around the same price. then later on have it tuned to exact set up. IMO if you dont do it this way dont do it at all your just wasting your time and money. its not the 90's any more so no reason to use a piggyback.
get your conversion harness
get a computer with a basemap untill you can get it tuned

No. He misspelled Crome, and you probably don't want to buy from someone who can't even spell the name of the products they're trying to support correctly. Support someone who actually cares enough to get the details correct, they're more likely to take care of you as a customer.

Re: ecu help....
pm'ed... im on a budget, but if u wait a lil bit ill get it asap! thats a good deal... and hell gettin a apexi vafc anywhere is more than that, rather just get the ecu... if i get this i would be more satisfied.... but will i still be able to pass emissions if i need to

Re: ecu help....
As long as your primary O2 sensor is installed and in good shape, and your tuner sets your map to run closed loop, I think you will pass emisions. You could probably also swap in your OEM ECU before going for an inspection - maybe others can chime in here...
