sweet man I wanted to go with all AEM but those gauges are so much. But the AEM wide band I was definitely going to go with.

Do you mean from the O2 housing to the dp or from the downpipe to the rest of the exhaust?

well i know the o2 housing connects just fine, but will it reach the rest of the exhaust or do I need to cut the pipe and make it longer to reach the rest of the exhaust?

ok guys I have another question about the ecu. I know I have to use ecu flash but im worried about screwing something up so here are my questions

1.) is it easy to use and download
2.) if I feel like I can't reflash my ecu does someone with the same setup want to do it for me for some cash?
3.) when using the 440 cc injectors and flashing my ecu, my FMU is the flashed ecu correct? I called a place called triworks and he said I need an fmu? so I want to double check before installing my turbo in my car.

thanks

you do not need a fmu if your running 440's. your already gonna be running rich just from the 440's so you need to do the ecuflash so that you can tune them down.. 440cc is way too much fuel.. i think we only require about 330cc when running a turbo.. ecuflash is not easy to use.. you have to know what your doing.. but you can download you stock ecu settings from your car and save them to your computer in case you need to switch it back to stock...

ok sounds good, or do you think someone will give me there tuned settings to download onto my ecu to make it easier? I don't know much about tuning but I would like to learn so Im not bothering everyone with these questions. Oh yeah where do you download ecu flash?

well the problem with that is that not everyones turbo set up is not the same. people run different components like bigger or smaller turbos, wastegates and stuff like that.. plus every car is different.. a flash that works good on one persons car doen not always work on another persons car.. and then theres the issue of someone giving away theyre hard work for free... people usually dont like todo that.. but if you can get someone to help you flash your car for a lil cash than thats always a plus..

heres the site you need to download EcuFlash

http://www.openecu.org/index.php?title=EcuFlash

best of luck with your build
