i have turbo and everything hooked up is just ready to hook up the aftermarket ecu but 1) i dont have it 2) i havent decide wich ecu to buy 3) i dont have the money. so im planning to put the stock wiring harness back and the stock ecu to started. does it hurt the engine if i just start it with the stock ecu? is just to start it no run it. thanks.

Since you are using a 2.5" exhaust and a stock turbo, I'm guessing that you are not building a dyno queen, so why not just wire in the stock ECU with a piggy back.

You could always use a rising rate fuel pressure regulator.

yep, 2.5 from the turbo to the intecooler and from the intercooler to the TB plate. i put two reducer, one in the turbo and the other in the TB plateand the pipe, because of the way i put the intecooler i didnt have to bend or take nothing out , ex for the U bend i had to buy to hook the pipe with the TB. but yes is almost ready, ex for the ecu. but anyway i was too quick. i not taking the car out until spring .
