Default Need advise on ecu upgrade for NA and future turbo set up

Hello SL,
I was hoping to get some advise,
first i have a simple set up intake;header, catback; and pulleys in the future this NA set up ill have it for at least 3 years(i just got my tc) till i pay off the car a bit more and by then ill hopefully have saved enough for turbo!!!!

I want my car to get tune; i was thinking of getting the vvti controller; not that expensive and i think it will help get the most out of my mods.

Is it worth it??? should i just get something better that way i dont have to upgrade that part once i go turbo????

dont want to spend that much since the turbo is not coming any time soon

Thanks any advise will help!!!!!

Yeah i read that report; do you think that will help me maximize the use of my mods;it only controls; the throttel and how much gas you are using.... i dont think its helping me get the most out of my mods but can help how much is it???

Im tempted in getting the Camcon what do you guyz think???
or is it a waste of money to get any EMS for tunning till i go turbo???

actually the more mods the better ill work.........il allow the car to pull better and make the throttle response much better......as far as gas well the higher you have the sport mode selected and really heavy on the gas yea ill burn some gas.......

i thought the samething...it makes a big difference on the tc alot of people that have bought it agree with me its one of the best mod that you can possible do....it opens up the car to its full potential not only that you can control it 7 levels in sports mode ive only gotten up to level 4 anything above that is too touchy for me really makes the car accelrate....is has Economony modfe to save gas also.....i recommend it
