Hi, so i have been collecting bits for my turbo project and i have hit a road block,, im really confused with how to run a different computer, apparently the ek has some odd version of computer and it requires some crazy amount of work to convert it, I know a reasonable amount about cares bit wiring and all this OBD stuff just blows me away.. any info would be awesome and i have googled alot but still dont get it,, is there any shops in brisbane that can do a conversion like this with the computer,,, thanks alot

Yeah its a lot to take in at first..
Do u have the d16y4? If so u need a stand alone.its the black she of the d16's.
The reason is because of the 3 wire IACV.
Stand alone ecu was run by an old member on here.took a HUGE effort by 20 or so professionals and they vowed never to do it again!
d16 turbo ftw mate! Way to go!!
afc neo is the best one I believe.

Also John (ecu man) AND LEGEND said to me about the y4:
"If you want to go OBDI, you will need to change the distributor, engine loom, and IACV (which may mean intake manifold), a lot of work."
Hope it helps u mate.

Yup sounds like u have the y4 engine after reading your first post again.
I have the same engine,10 yrs now.
U will almost double the power with turbo + piggy back ecu and tune.
Cant go wrong with that mate.The piggy back ecu is fuel tuning only,it won't change the timing like a stand alone and that's where u get greater gains.
But who cares! Power WILL be doubled.
