Help with 2008 lancer CVT turbo conversion

I have a 2008 lancer CVT NA which is currently being fitted with a turbo. I have ordered an openport 2, but have to wait for it to arrive. Can anyone help me with what XML file is required and what I would need to change to allow me to tune the fuel and timing for boost. The plan is to only run 5psi boost.

Thanks

Daniel.

Turbo for cvt is very bad. Standby a gearbox.

I have told the owner that but they want the turbo anyway. I'm just tuning it.

From the reading I have done it looks as though I need to use the evo x rom in the stock computer with an evo x MAP sensor. But that will still leave me with a check engine light that no one seems to know how to fix. Can anyone tell me if Im on the right track here?

Thanks Daniel.

Yes, you will need 3 bar Evo X map sensor, cause stock one is not reading boost. Also with Evo X ROM you will have CEL and MIVEC will be disabled.

If you don't want to have CEL you will have to install aftermarket piggy-back ECU - AEM FIC8
