Yea I ran 3 or 4 mods for a while without an ecu. I was getting spiking as high as 16 lps once!! I just got tierd of being scared to punch the gas. go ahead and get the
ecu. But cosider this a reprogrammed ecu is a done deal ,no adjustments cam be made. My stage 3 m2 makes my car run rich.Now I got to get a better ecu(programmable) so that I can tune properly.You may want to take this under advisement before making your purchase
