Default FMU ...PLEASE READ

when having a turbo ...do you need a fmu even if you have the fuel pump, injectors and a fuel regulator?

If yes..what is the best for D16Y8 with TDh04-15G

YES, unless you're running AFC hack, or standalone such as hondata.

Fuel regulator can only control static base fuel pressure. FMU will increase the fuel pressure as it sees boost. No boost, no increase in fuel.

Standalone add fuel by changing or manipulating injectors duty cycle.

So what if you have a SKUNK2 ECU along with fuel pump, injectors, and the fuel regulator...do you still need the FMU ?

Skunk2 makes boost ECUs ? Didn't know that...

If it's not a boost ECU, but an N/A w/ remapped fuel... DON'T Boost on it... the ignition maps are drastically different.

You are right.. Sorry, SKUNK2 makes ECUs for only N/A cars.
