Default Is my racing chip gonna work?

I have a DOHC ZC i built the hole motor insides and out like having dual springs etc... but the real question is right now i have a Mugen racing chip, and I'm putting a t3/t4 turbo on my car do I need to change the chip or remap the ecu, or will the chip i have work for me?

if you got the chip off of ebay, youll definately need to remove it. most chips just advance timing, so beware of detonation. also if youre going turbo, you need different fuel maps anyway because with the extra boost, you run the risk of running lean and blowing your motor. tune your ecu for turbo and youll be in good shape.

no chip out there will make your car run right.

like the other guys said...take it to a proffesional tuner
