I think it would be better to chip your ecu and run uberdata or turboedit for crx's.
$30 for ecu components, $100 for street tune, $40 for injectors. better deal and way better engine mangament.
Your setup might cost at minumum: $60 FMU, $120 inline pump and engine management isn't quite as effective as a chipped ecu. Think about it.

While I admit that uberdata is chepaer, where are you gettign these numbers???

Where in teh HELL you gonna find a good burner and a few chips for $30. And how are you going to street tune with $100. Need at LEAST a wideband which runs upwards of $250.

You find a tunner who's gonna do it for you. I found a guy that'll full tune for $100. And those are my numbers. I was going fmu and inline pump first but resold all and chips ecu. And chipped can be bought from xenocron on hmt for that price.
