if you have 2K to spend, buy a laptop and a wideband, learn to tune it. I, unlike many evo owners, use a 95 DSM ecu so i can run dsmlink. This made things easy for me since i came from DSMs. I'm sure you could also find a lot of help tuning what you already have. Speed density is much easier on dsmlink though. after you get your the rest of the tune running correctly, its time to think about getting a bigger turbo.
Is the ECU conversion just a matter of repinning? How would that work with emissions? Thanks! I'm curious!

Running a 2G DSM ECU in an EVO8

If you don't want to repin the ecu, you can contact Thomas at ecmlink and he will repin the DSM ECU internally so it is plug and play, charged me $75. you will have to run 1 wire from the ecu to the obd2 port to complete the install. Then you have dsmlink and speed density is easy cheese. never tried to take it to emissions.. i don't think it would be an issue though. They just give you the tail sniffer if they cant connect to the obd port.
