I was wondering if I got all the parts needed from a turbo buick with s.f.i.,
ecu, injectors, fuel rail,ect.... Could I use it on my slant, and if so I could use the stock intake right?, I dont need to buy like a 2 or 4 barrel intake since I wont be useing the carb right?

It will work, but if you are not going to use the turbo the ECU will have calibration that includes boosted MAP readings which you will never see. The TB will work, but it is larger than the naturaly aspirated engine, which won;t hurt anything, but will not be the ideal size for your engine. If you are using the turbo, there will be lots of fabrication, but you can make it all work. I think you will want to go to a DYI ECU so you can program it. That is alot of work, but in the end produces the best drivability.

The bottom line is if you can get it at a resonable price, go ahead. Most of it can be used. I puchased two different Buick ECU's from the junk yard, and in the end did not use either one. I started with MegaSquirt and alot of help from DArt270, and then later switched to Accel. At the time of the switch, the Accel unit had better features, but that is no longer true, as the Megasquirt has been steadily improved to include most of what Accel offers.
