By the way, turbo kits suck anyways. I'd go custom.
Most of the ones I've seen are using E-Manage I think RIPP has a "black box" though for their SC. They said it may also work on turbos, but they wouldn't recommend it. It seems to be pretty much plug & play. Here's what they said about it.

"We are currently working on a "black box" (RIPP CHIP) for the 6G72 POWERED CARS. It will be able read the "mixed" RPM signal this car puts out and correct it, into a usable signal and be able to remap the stock ECU into a monster tuning tool

You will be able to adjust timing and control fuel as accurately as a full stand alone and better than the AFR. This preprogrammed unit will be a standard issued unit in our SDS kit and will be replacing the AFR as soon as it is completed.

What this means is you will no longer need to program fuel delivery. It will already come pre-programmed, all you need to do is hook it up. This also means we will need to worry less on engine failure and more on traction. Nice!"
