Hi there to all

I recently installed my HS headers on my DOHC KANow everybody here (so called experts) are telling me to add some kind of piggy back computer in order ot fine tune my car and maximize the benefits of future mods.

Now then, do I really need to add a piggyback (I was thinking of maybe a Emanage with timing module or SAFC2) to do this or the stock ECU will compensate for this. Everybody tells me to get ine with timing control (even I plan to keep NA for long time)

Or

Go ahead and jump into the boosted side with a kit (maybe a Greddy one) or wait until WDracing finish his?

This is for a 93 DOHC

well a SAFC will never hurt...but you don't "need" it.

forget the headers, get a turbo kit

if you've got the money, just go turbo...im doing a slow build up, various parts at different times.. all turbo compatible.

an s-afc will get you a bit more power, but if you are going to turbo anytime soon with akit, just get the turob kit, and move on from there.-chet

and air-fuel controller is great especially if you have to pass smog every year. They usually come bundled with all sorts of other features too.
