First off I just ordered a crankscraper for my car and can't wait till that comes in to install:rocks:

Next I will be doing the throttle body and then the crower stage 2 cams. My question is will my stock ecu be okay with the cams and everything? It will run normal right? I just don't want to spend all the money on cams to find out I need to replace the ecu. However one day I do plan on goin MS or the AFX ecu
 
I don't see why it wouldn't work. You aren't adding fuel but creating a better breating intake. You would benefit with a tune however.
 
Everything will be good, but you wont see much of a gain from the cams till you get rid of the stock ecu. You may experience some idling issues, i know a lot do, but it will normally work itself out in anywhere from a couple days to 2 weeks tops. This of course is if the idling is do to the ecu learning the cams and wont go away if the problem lies elsewhere (timing off as an example). Upgrading the TB shouldnt cause any problems as long as all your sensors are working fine. For the fuel that Achelea was talking about, us NA's don't need to worry about our fuel system till either we go boost or start hitting numbers close to 200whp
 
what kind of throttle body are you considering?
 
If you're planning to go turbo, i'd say 60mm tb wouldnt be a bad option either..
or you could do what i did and mod a jeep tb, much better than its billet counterpart imho.
 
If you're planning to go turbo, i'd say 60mm tb wouldnt be a bad option either..

^this^, if you stay na 60mm is still viable but as you said can hurt your low end as you know. If you go 55 look for one that flows 57mm, think its called a half bore or something. Thats the sweet spot without losing low end
