Non turbo to turbo

I'm working on a project right now currently looking for parts to convert a non turbo to turbo Rx 7. Is there a compatible ecru I can put directly into my car without needing to rewire the entire system

Just make sure you order the same series as your engine harness. All of them are in stock and ready to ship. Just enter your modes into the note section for a custom base map.

This is literally a plug in to my ecu and I wouldn't need to tune it or anything with a program ?

Tuning is always important. There is no way to have a tune that works for every engine. OEM has thousands of man hours involved in their tunes.

I was at a point to do that I even posted my car in Craigslist but at this point I might just build my car and then buy a shell and swap it

The base map inside the ECU was done on a S4 T2 stateside. It will probably need some adjusting. We have done several here too in house( we have our own base maps).

But yes it is PNP, and start up and tune....
