Default ecu options ??

hi guys basically i have got a v1 sti engine running a SA type ecu im looking to have the car set up properly with a esl maybe just wanting too have a rough idea of power results with my supporting mods..

Mods:

fully forged
lightened and balanced crank
ported heads
ported V1 inlet (with 5th injector blocked)
sard fuel pressure reg
FMIC
VF34
3 inch turbo back exhaust
equal lenght headers
255 fuel pump
440cc injectors
grade 8 ngk iridium spark plugs

i know the vf34 run out of steam around 340 bhp but anything as close to 340/350 would be awesome..

would it be better at have AL /LC included on the map aswell or should i stay clear of it ?

esl is a good choice especially for the money, i can tell you their support afterwards is top notch if you have any problems.

the injectors and turbo are what will hold you back but you have a nice setup so i would expect 350 maybe a little more. off the top of my head but arent grade 8 plugs a bit overboard , i think 7 is what you need

oh and imo al/lc are gimmicks and both can be hard on the car, esl are either doing it now or in the future but i wont be getting it .

Ahh that's a weight of my shoulders and yeaa I just thought if run the engine on colder plugs it would run better when it comes to be mapped.. 350 is pretty much what i want perfect for daily use
