Just to clarify what this person meant, we need to define the verbage.
FMU (Fuel Management Unit) - Piggyback computer.
ECU (Engine Control Unit) - Stand Alone computer.
If this is the case, all you need is the FMU. If you want full control and added features, then a Stand Alone is what you need. It, howeve, costs way more than a piggyback and requires professional tuning.How Fast Was I Going?

I think he means a rising rate fuel pressure regulator. Often referd to as FMU's in kits that use that method for fuel enrichment.
