Pleae don't tell me you're going n/a on a d-series.



Wait until you get it all assembled and running before you chip/tune anything, can't tune a motor that doesn't run.

Yes. I didn't say don't get the p28. just wait till it's all ready to be put togther. You're not saving any vast amount of time by doing any of it before you get your head back.

If you get the ecu, you could swing by and get the chip installed it you need someting to do. but A tuner will laugh at you if you take just your ecu and tell him to install crome and a rich fuel map.
