yes, its possible. you need to do a baseband or uberdata tuning.

i would do a lot more research before you turbocharge your car. the correct way to manage a turbocharged car would be with larger injectors and a tuned ecu.

if you go cheap on tuning you wont have a running car for long.

To answer your question, yes. You could also run a turbo honda on stock injectors and no fmu or tuning. It would get extremely lean and start cutting out as soon as boost hit though. ;)

well the thing is is that i got this motor for practically free and i know it wont run for much longer and i have a manifold,turbo,intercoler and all the pipping i have all i would need to turbo except fmu internels or anything like that.but i want to turbo it and have fun for alittle bit. is there any way i could hook all that up and have it not cut off when i hit boost?

Yeah, get yourself a AFC and a missing link or some sort of one way valve.

keep in mind i would never ever say this in a practical situation......honestly if u can scroung a few dollars together for injectors and get it chipped on a basemap. if not at least just the basemap. it wont last a day without any fuel management. and what i suggested wont last very long either but long enough to have fun.
