how would this work on a 2.0 with a 1.8 cam?
i dont think there shold be a problem with leanness, as our cars run really rich anyway... or i could throw some octane booster in there with the good grade fuel...
it sounds like a quick high revving combo with my intake and headers, think i could hit 150 whp with an IM and TB?(keeping stock exaust after the cat?) i can set up an fpr if i need to
im not really worried about valve float myself, i only have 31500 miles. i wouldnt be redlining often anyway

Yeah, I would say it would work well, however I would recommend that you use some sort of wideband to keep an eye on your a/f ratio. My engine is very modified and flows MUCH more air than stock, even still being NA. That is probably why it was fairly lean, but you should check and make sure anyway.
As for the loss of the OBD II, you may get a CEL, you may not, all you need to do is swap back to your stock ecu if you need to go through emissions or are worried there may be a code not related to the swapped ecu.
Price remains at 100 shipped if you are interested.
Please let me know,

BTW: 150 with just a few mods is unlikely, but hey, who knows? I would estimate the high 130's - low 140's range as far as whp goes for your setup.
