ECU before mods?
I have currently a M2 Aluminum intake, Efini Y-pipe,and a 3" SS downpipe. Stock exhaust and cat... By boost is 12-10-12. I got a response from before that this is pushing the stock ECU's capabilities...
My question is: Can I install an ECU mapped for Intake, DP, Exhaust, IC and Midpipe first? I know it will run rich, but how rich is TOO rich? I will do the mods, but I cant afford them all at once...Next will be the Catback, which would have hit the 3 mod mark... But I'm a bit worried! Thanks.

How long is it until you plan to install an i/c and a midpipe? If it's going to be a while, get an M2 Stage II chip (or equivalent) that's tuned for intake, d/p, and exhaust. If you get one used, you'll be able to sell it for pretty close to what you paid for it when you upgrade to a midpipe and i/c.
