Hi guys, so the wife wants more go out of her mirage, its a 4G15 auto, say no more..

so i've purchased an aftermarket turbo manifold from the US, a turbo and a waste gate, my question is, is there some way of flashing the std ecu to handle the boost or a way to control the air/fuel/timing with a plug in style ecu, i realise yeah get an aftermarket ecu wire it in and simples, but i only want to run around 6psi just so it has better pick up.. not chasing HP just a little bit more go and she opted for a turbo, was going to do an evo swap but bow decided against that as our kids have got licenses now ans we will use it as a second car, however i am still on the hunt fir a CE mirage with electric mirrors and windows as i will be doing s fill 4WD drivetrain swap into another car and build that fkr her as a side project for our restoration business but i do old classics/muscle and hotrod so the electronic/computer side of these little rice burners(sorry guys) i have no idea about, is there anyone in the brisbane/logan/gold coast area that i can get this part sorted out or does anyone know of a realitively cheapish option to achive controlling the engine in boosted form...
 
It’s been so long since I’ve looked at 4g15 ecu so my memory is a little stretched. But I’m fairly sure they’re quite limited as to their tuning abilities. Where as the 4g93 plastic case ecu’s can be flashed and are good for turbo conversions.
For the 4g15 though I think you’ll be looking at either a piggy back or full stand alone ecu. I’m sure someone can confirm this though, it’s not really my area of expertise. Maybe also have a read through the ECU Tuning thread and drop a reply if no one answers you here.

It’s a bit of a shame you’ve already bought your turbo gear for the 4g15 as the 4g93 upgrade firstly gives you a real good initial n/a power upgrade and is a better platform for a turbo, again giving another leap & bound with a turbo conversion.

If you’re after a mirage with factory electric options you’ll need to hunt for a VRX Mirage. Made from 98 onwards. They also have a factory black interior which looks sweet!
