Stand alone EMS

**barrybliss333** · 05-26-2006, 04:44 AM

So I now have a working 3sgte swap done to my 1988 Celica GT. I dropped a st185 engine in with a MR2 tranny and it was working great... then I got a wild idea to put a T4 manifold and turbo on it and now it's running like shit... i was wondering if anyone can confirm that a stand alone ems will fix this problem like i belive it will... it seems to be running way to lean on the fule/air mixture... so yeah thanks for the help

What PSI you're boosting? Does it run bad all the time?

I'm running 21psi with 12 bypassed to the blow off most of the time... and yeah it pretty much runs shitty all the time..

is running shitty at idle, at wot or during normal driving ? if its at wot maybe your fuel needs to be upgraded if its not already done

it will be your ecu, since you have upgraded to a bigger turbo, your now flowing fuckloads of charged air, the stock 185 ecu is all like WTF, buy an EMS - piss off boost cut, upgrade your fuel system and you should be right.
