On the stock ECU? It can be done by modifying the DET harness or change out the DET harness for a DE harness and call it a day. Your post is very vague, so I'm going off what you provided.

The FSM has all of the wiring info in there. It's in the FAQ. We don't have a step-by-step in there, but it wouldn't be difficult either.

Are you asking for a standalone EMS suggestion? There are a lot of options out there commonly used on the CA; SDS, Nistune, Megasquirt, etc.

Unless you actually take the car to Jim Wolf, they're only going to do chip tunes, which will only get you close on tuning. You will still need some way to do the final tuning.
