on ecu flash click read rom, let the computer do its thing, and then click save as, name it stock rom, or orig lancer rom something you know that its the stock version then save it and make copies just in case if you have a virus one day that melts down your cpu

sorry one last stupid question...i don't need to add anything when i save it right...like stock rom.hex or stock rom.zip or something like that, I can save it as "stock rom" and nothing else after that right??
It'll add a file extension to the file name on it's own I bet. Doesn't hurt if it doesn't you could just add it on....a file is a file.

ARP headstuds came in today. I ordered the maintenance stuff like headgasket, valve cover gasket, etc and once a some funds or my stock ES tailights sell I'll order the stuff for the oil feed/ return lines and then I should be ready to go.
Currently I'm trying to figure out what my options are for tuning the ecu since I don't think there has been a single turboed 04-06 lancer that has been using the stock ecu. Most have used the piggyback system from RRM. Gotta keep reading.

Nice, my block was just bored to for my new forged pistons, as well as the fly wheel. Getting ready to assemble my motor as well with ARP head studs. Trying to locate the ARP main bolts and ARP fly wheel bolts but the flywheel bolts are irregular dimensions 11mm head. The ones ARP offers are a bit long so Id have to cut em down shorter. I eventually going to turbo but for now justh ave the built motor and piece together the turbo kit as I go, probably going to have to use a stand alone fuel management system as well.

yeah i'm putting everything on the blown motor first then transfering it over to the car. Once the turbo is on imma start diassembling the blown motor and hopefully if its not too bad I can rebuild it for when the motor in the car goes.
Once that's done I can start working on the vw 16v engine so I put ITBs on that.
