Default turbo blue boxes, vafc, fmu, hondata oh my!

Ok, I am poor, first and foremost. I am putting together a turbo kit, what computers do i need? Will I be set with a greddy blue box and a fmu? I know hondadata is best but there is no way in hell i can afford that. If I only run like 7psi on stock cx internals will i be ok with stock fuel pump/injectors, or do i need to replace those as well?

Thanks for any help

If you're poor dont go turbo. Blue box will work and you don't need an FMU with it.

ok even tho my kit isnt greddy i can still use a dseries greddy box right? Also would vafc help with the box or just be a waste. So i dont need injectors, fmu and fuel pump for only 7 psi. Im no that poor just not rich enough to blow 700 on ONLY a computer, no matter how tunable it is.

I wouldn't go turbo if you are poor

Cheapest route though will be FMU/missing link
