ive been reading that actually and theres a section on fmu and it says that a fpr is a good alternative to an expensive emu so idk it seems like it says one thing then it says the complete opposite

right, and if you keep reading, it pretty much says that its good for up, about 5 psi on stock injectors, and you will need some sort of timing retard unit, but really, get a ems, standalone, piggyback, whatever, you can control your fuel precisly, and your ignition precisly, theres less parts to deal with, less to go wrong. i got my F/IC for $300 including shipping, $150 for a plug n play harness, and i bought the AEM UEGO, find a shop that has wholesale accounts with vendors and buy through the shops. you will have to pay somebody to tune it if you dont know how, but imho its easy to learn how since they give you nice instructions.

If you want to make 220HP you need proper engine management.

...You really tried to run boost with no engine management whatsoever?

Don't bother with the bandaids. Get a freakin MS/AEM/whatever.
