anyone know?
I'm curious for a few reasons. will the stock setup go nutty if it smells boost or too much airflow?

Outside of the usual caveat that the O2 sensor will be fighting you as you add fuel, I can't see why an '01 ECU would be predisposed to freak out. It has no MAP sensor.
Is there a problem?

no problem (yet?)
and when I say stock, I mean stock. as in adding a turbo and leaving everything else (well, not the crossover pipe) stock. just wondering if it's possible to datalog the OBDII port and build a stock map with the turbo on so I don't have to change a bunch of crap back to stock.
and I can't wire the WG open, it's an external.

You should be ok, the MAF doesn't start freaking out til ~15psi, But as Joe all ready mentioned the stock ecu will keep your A/F @ 14.7, w/o an o2 clamp

My car went dead lean under 3 psi last night. I removed the Voodoo box and was driving under the stock ECU. I stay out of boost when driving like that but wanted to see what would happen if I got into a little bit of boost. The wideband said my AFR went down to 17. Not saying this is correct or anything, but I won't be going into any boost under the stock ecu again. Gotta get MS working.
