First off let me say I'm a newb to the site and havn't really thumbed through all the threads. I will also get some picks of the rig up ASAP> I've got a HIGH mileage (550,000+ mile) 22re that I am building/rebuilding. I've got the block and head decked, ARP main, rod and head studs, 9.0:1 pistons, 510cc injectors, along with many other bits and pieces. Having a machine shop down the road with many friends whom work there is I big bonus. I'm also putting a MHI Big 16G turbo on it.

I am more or less wanting to know where to get an ECU or tuner for the swap. Or will I be just as well off going stand alone? It will be going in my 88 1Ton. Needs more power to pull what the springs can take. 8000# more than the truck takes a toll on the lil 22re and the builder will have more than enought getty up to get the job done. Any info will be greatly appriciated.

Thanks much in advance.

 

i know it's not what you want to know but a small block chevy would be the cheap and easy route.

 

megasquirt is the cheapest tuner available, but you have to build it and tune it yourself.

 

talk to this guy about a pre made megasquirt

Yeah I know it's cheaper and I do have one to spare. I also thought about a GM 6.2 diesel or a 6.5 turbo diesel. The 350 has been done all too much and the GM diesel option just sounds like $10 a gallon in 3 months. I'll definatly be thinking it over. Worst thing that will happen is I will be posting the engine on here for sale and saying to hell with it and go to the norm. Thanx for the info all of ya.

 

dont give up here is a site with some good 22re turbo info
