John,
More important than the compressor is the turbine section. If you
just upgrade the compressor it will put even more of a load on the
turbine secton (I have burned out 2 of them). There are companies
that will replace the turbine section with TO4 as well. If you search
the archives I have posted the contact info and pictures of my turbine
sections.
I think the n/a EC2 only goes up to 30 or 32" or something like that,
(also in the archives somewhere). Even the turbo version only goes up
to 50" or something like that. If you go above the upper limit I
don't think it will run very well. But yes, Mark, turbo normalizing
will work very well.

No. I am doing the same thing. Originally I was doing it so I wouldn't have
to use a muffler.
Tracy said as long as I didn't use it to try to attain outlandish manifold
pressures, no
changes were necessary. I should say I'm not flying yet. I have been told
by
others that an occasional boost for take off to, say, 35 inches is ok as
well.
I did have a TO4 compressor section added to the stock turbine since the
mazda turbo was so woefully inadequate.

When
I originally bought my EC2 (possibly EC3) I had Tracy build
it for naturally aspirated.
If I turbo normalize the engine do I need to
change the controller programming?
