Default turbo swap goin in next friday, need some final answers....

Ok I have my built turbo b17a1 going in next friday i have a few questions.

1. Do I need an ems to run it period (uberdata/hondata/neptune)

2. Do I need a boost controller to run it or can i run with a boost controller at a set pressure?

3. I dont have an exhuast, i do have some crappy obx exhuast its 2.25, can i use it temporarily or will it ruin my turbo?

4. My engine has been sitting for a while and like a few little gnats and bugs of that small size got into the head, i air-blasted most of them out, what else should/can i do to get them out? and will this be a big concern when the engine is in and running?

thanks!

get the head hot tanked if it has been sitting around that long, or you could just make sure that you clean it up real well, a air hose is a good start.
