D15B7 Turbo Setup

By mitchyb
- Sun Feb 08, 2009 12:05 am #94859 Yo, i just bought a turbo kit for my D15 and was wondering if there were anythings i needed to do before just throwing the kit on. the kit has a WRX TD04L turbo, turbo manifold, slimline front mount intercooler, custom welded intercooler piping, blow-off valve, manual boost controller and hoses and clamps...

i know it will need a tune so what ecu/piggy back system should i use?

Can't go wrong with AEM but it can hurt the wallet, as well as Hondata.

You running a WB o2 as well?

Crome has its learning curves no doubt. It's perfect if you're a cheap ass like me :D

Uberdata is decent as well

If you don't know much about tuning, i suggest calling around and finding your local tuner and have them do it.
