I was thinking samething.....

I think before you start throwing any boost at your engine you have some researching to do so you know the fundamentals of whats required to boost your engine. Or..just run 10psi on your Phearable basemap and take a chance on fuc**** your engine...and seeing how you have a GSR..i'd hate to see that.

Setup on OBD1 and get your ECU Chipped and Socketed and Tune on Crome,Hondata,Neptune,ECtune,etc.

.... first of all 10 psi.... on an SC61 .... would be a lot differnt than 10 psi on a baby turbo........ second of alll a phearable chip is a basemap for you to start your car so you can therefore TAKE it to a tuner.... and no fuel mods = boom..

READ! I posted that yesterday..thats just a few options. Of course Hondata is an ECU in itself.

Toss the VAFC idea IMO. And the chip..dude you just mentioned that yesterday in your original post which was the Pherable. Good grief.

Many tuners have the hardware and software you need. There are also many websites which sell hondata s300 ecu's if that is the rout you want to take.

Well like matsgsr said..most places will have the software and unless you tune it yourself you don't really need much. For example if you get it tuned on Crome. Even if your OBD1 ECU isn't already chipped and socketed the tuner will do it and then tune the car for you.

I know the Hondata is an ECU within itself but i'm not very familer with it so I don't comment on things I don't know about.
