More items we include, the more the system costs.
and for you guys who are whining about wanting a fmic, it doenst have to be a huge one half the size of your radiator, try looking into smaller ones like a 1 square foot sized one. that is what youll find on a turbo eclipse or even on a a4. i know my brothers audi s4 uses one of those small ones for each turbo.
if you do get a smaller one maybe somehow youll find it easier to mount and run pipes to.
dezod, i think your going the right direction with this. sounds like a great kit and alot of people will jump on this. i know i wouldve if it came out earlier. but one question...... will this be for an ex or lx/dx setup? because for lx/dx the downpipe has to be shorter than for an ex.
and gearbox, if you have an lx/dx where the cat is in the exhaust mani. you wont be able to use stock cat unless you reweld it further back.

Rep Power: 811 so i know this is a dumb question, but what would you recommend as "required" additional parts we would need? Like do we even need a boost controler or other things? I was gonna make a turbo timer from radioshack parts actually. So I was just wondering to make your base kit safe, what else should we look into buying.

Rep Power: 811 also if we get the emanage, all we would need is the ignition and injector harnesses? and your pnp harness to hook it the the ecu? I'm assuming your harness is a dezod exclusive so I would pick that up from you as well.
i just was wondering how to install this also. Say we buy the emanage with injector/ignition harnesses, your pnp harness and plug everything together. is there any setup or switches that have to be set for it to work properly?

Rep Power: 811 boost sensor and harness for emanage or standalone? is there a post about jumpers? there was an emanage on ebay for $350 shipped for the unit and injector/ignition harnesses is that a good deal?

Here is an example of some fuel maps...
This map below is the only "fuel" map that can be adjusted without the boost sensor and harness
Where as this map is also available with teh boost sensor and harness. It just allows for a better tune
as for the jumpers and dials ....
Dials are....
LX = 4-8-C
EX = 4-8-E

Rep Power: 0 You will probably need the following:
RSX injectors
E-manage w/ PnP or injector and ignition harnesses
Other than the fuel part, everything else is icing on the cake.

You could use your VAFC-2 with RSX injectors to save yourself about 350$,wont be able to change your timing, but with low boost and high octane fuel, you wouldnt need to adjust anyways.
