    I dont think you want to run the RRFPR.. I've heard bad things about them and turbos. The concept sounds good, but aparantly its not. Dont run a markd chip unless its custom and it retards timing, otherwise you will detonate when the chip advances the timing under boost. Depending on how much boost your running and how much fuel pressure you may want more than 19lbers. MSD BTM works fine for boosted cars.

      TCD sells a chip for turbo'd M20s. not sure if that'll work for you or not though, but it's worth looking into.

            Yes, standard chips advance timing to gain more power. With a turbo, you want to retard timing under boost so you don't predetonate.

              Megasquirt or a WAR chip would be a good idea for boost. Lots of tuning available for both
