Thanks for all the replies, I have a AFR guage, oil pressure guage and boost guage that I will wire in before its finished,
I'm currently driving an EP3 type r as a daily, but will more than likely end up driving the starlet full time when it's done (so won't be driving it like I've stolen it, atleast not all the time)
Everything fuel wise -injectors and fuel pump etc is all still standard.
So tbh I can run the setup I am currently for the running in period (with an AFR guage etc) then when it comes to afterwards, it'd be best to get an ecu for a proper map? Where are the best places to get a map? (Not too worried about distance as I originally thought I'd have to trailer it there)
I'm not too worried about removing the speed limiter, for daily use I'll never go near 112mph so that's not a problem.

Hi all,
right this post is more than likey in the wrong place (sorry)
lets start from the top, I'm completely new to all this and don't really know what I'm doing (lol)
I'm running a TD04 on stock internals - using a SARD fuel pressure regulator and fuel cut defender. (backyard modification i know)
I've completely rebuilt the 4EFTE from the ground up and want to run it as safe as possible (having spent more than i wanted to and replaced literally everything!)
i'm nearing the end of the rebuild, and wanting to run a safer option than i am currently.. Ie. an ECU of some sort.
ive noticed alot of you guys either run the Emanage blue or ultimate.
I'm edging towards to Blue to keep the final costs down, but my problems are - i want to be as safe as possible while running it in - so i want to get an ECU.. do they come with a base map that i can just 'potter' around in to make up 500 miles or so, or do i have to get a full map on 'said' ECU?
I.E. can i run on the current set up for the 500 miles then buy an ECU and get a map or is it best to get the ECU straight away and go down that route?
I've read that its best to find a mapper, then buy the ECU that the mapper is familiar with and go down that route.
i'm literally stuck with everything, so any help that any of you can give will be a great help.
where are the best places to get a map on any ECU that is as close as possible to Somerset (Southwest)

What are my options and what are the price ranges?
Thanks

Just a standard rocker cover to replace mine while i get it cleaned and sprayed

Yeah I saw signs of that when putting the front mount on, bit of welding needed but she's good as gold now, yeah got rid of the dump valve as it was leaking and causing issues, but is all good. Goes well,

Yeah, just checked the log book, and previous owner is from the same place as you, got it back in March.

I'm near Yeovil, yeah it's a 4efte. Did you see the spec sheet? - fml. That's what I had planned for Japfest, ending up changing the wheels and suspension and didn't get time for the turbo.

New or Not So New Glanza?!

Okay, is the fuel pump just a plug and play? Or do I have to map that in? Nah, replaced everything with standard internals (didn't have the funds to go forged)
Oh I see, removed for the power run?
What's an ebc? Boost controller? Any recommendations?
I went down the route of a 'bleed valve' but had very little luck with controlling the boost. It ended up boosting at 25psi for a second or so, and ended up running rough ever since.
I'll try and put everything up that I can think of.. (I took the car off the road in 2014 - delayed rebuild because of lack of experience.
