Civic-EG.com Forum 3.3.1

- Mon Jan 09, 2012 3:42 am #289124 picked up a garrett gt1752 (i know it is small..) for free. i have been told by a few people that with a turbo this small it would be fine to just run a fmu and stock injectors, no need to tune it cause it wont make much power. i also had a few people tell me to chip my ecu and tune it myself using a basemap and fine tune with crome. i would like to get input from the civic-eg family. run a fmu, basemap and self tune or have it tuned by a real tuner? i was thinking i should at least get slightly bigger injectors and getting it tuned. it will be going on my DD 92 vx with a d16a6/z6 minime.

- Mon Jan 09, 2012 3:50 am #289128 I would recomend getting it tuned. I mean it cant hurt. it will make max power and be safe. I dont see a downfall with it getting a real tune. and you will also have a dyno sheet to know where you stand.

- Mon Jan 09, 2012 4:22 am #289134 i just need to find out how much it will cost to have it tuned in the cincinnati area.
