Looking in turboing my cinquecento could I use a seicento inlet manifold with the 4 injectors instead of using the extra injector with the mf2 on the spi body?
Technical seicento inlet manifold or mf2

You'd need to use the Sei head too. Can't see a reason why not but you'd still need a stand alone management system to drive it all.

Going to depend an aweful lot on which mamagement system you use. If you've not followed the VAG/MF2 route, my advice is, don't!
MPI is the way to go, with a decent aftermarket ECU.

Any recommendations on what stand alone management system to use? Will a piggy back work instead of a standalone?
There are loads of options, best read through some of the turbo threads and make your own decisions based on your findings.
as above, there is no 1 answer to this...
Yes there is.. Budget?
Not really a few hundred quid price difference between different ECU's will be the least of your worries if you start a Turbo project with MPI. Also projects like Woj's created by reprogramming an OE ECU will be vastly superior to someone purchasing the best ECU money can buy with no idea how to set it up.
MF2's were rediculously expensive when new, (£500 IIRC). Really it comes down to what suits the individuals needs, skill level, who's going to set it up/install/tune it, requirements of use etc. Budget on the ECU is a small concern on a home build turbo project.
By far the cheapest and most sensible option is to buy a pre turboed Cento and make it your own.
Some of us just like to do it our own way.

Just had a read up on the turbo range on the modified monsters site and to run low boost it says run a 803 bosch injector on top oe bob ran by a Mf2 and use a fuel cut defender but surely the standard ecu can run the mpi and with a fuel cut defender would that run the turbo?
no, the ecu can't handle boost, doesn't know what to do with it, hence you need a standalone or piggy back system.

Now I'm getting somewhere. So to run mpi piggy back or a standalone! I've looked for a piggy and will this one do the job AEM FIC Fuel Ignition Controller Piggyback?
No, the Cento isn't OB2. Have you actually read any of the turbo threads on this forum??
:yeahthat:
there is simply loads of them you should read before even starting to look for bits.

Only really 2 ways. Stand alone or Honeymonster way. But read the threads and be prepared to spend a lot of money.
