The series 4 ones are huge, I believe you can upgrade to the smaller series 5 AFM but have no idea what is involved. In order to remove it you would have to go with a standalone engine management system.

Um, any turbo upgrade is going to require a standalone to be reliable. So you'll be ditching the AFM anyway.

DO NOT run a big turbo setup on the stock ECU. You'll blow it up.

I wouldn't consider an RTek a standalone. It's a programmable stock ECU.
