FMU's are junk. Your best bet if you do not want to shell out the cash for Hondata is to convert the car to OBD1 by buying a jumper harness and then put Crome on it. Also it is a good idea to put in a Walbro 255 fuel pump as well as some bigger injectors.

Re: turbo civic ???????

The only thing that matters for injector sizing is the target power level you're shooting for. There are a lot of calculators out there, but an easy thing to do is to talk to someone with a similar setup to what you want, or talk to a tuner and tell them your goals.
