    He was also talking about a piggyback which just "tricks" the ecu it doesn't replace it. Chris, on the other hand, an aftermarket ecu will almost always have a larger table to work off of when tuning so there are very few instances where a stock ecu will be better than an aftermarket one. In the case of the mirage though. If it's flashable I doubt people will exceed the needs that a stock ecu can handle especially if it's anywhere near the capabilities of an older evo ecu.

    So I had an idea for a top mount inter cooler on this little car using a turbo from a mini cooper (first results on ebay that was cheap for smaller engines.) I'd love to do something like this but the only information i don't understand is the boost control setup. Could anyone help me with this? Imagine the pep of a turbo and the more aggressive sounds.

    Hey Cris051 I know it's been a while, but do you have any updates on your project?
