I got the turbo, wastegate, intercooler, and BOV all for free from a friend.

What would you recommend on a intercooler?

What was said earlier, sell that safc and get yourself a chipped P28 ecu from a 92-95 civic ex with a ob2-obd1 adapter harness.

Check xenocron.com

Probably the most important part of your whole setup is the tuning, so make sure you find a good tuner or read up on it yourself if your mechanically inclined.

If not you engine is going to last very short.

i agree..get that AFC and throw it in the trash..too much of a wiring hassle..if ur short on money get a 12:1 FMU and adjust ur dizzy and youll be good until u can get tuned..get ya a better IC as well
