Hybrid turbo upgrade selection & general tuning question

The problem with running with the factory ECU with the Stage 1 BNR is that you ARE going to hit the factory boost cut, which is very bad since it cuts fuel.

If you are going to go Stage 1, you might as well invest in at least the Rtek and larger secondaries, and get it tuned. Otherwise, stick to the standard rebuild, and get Brian to port the wastegate while he's in there. I would get an FCD as well for the extra insurance.
