Why do you think you would be running lean?
If that's really what you need to do then you can get a AFPR and raise the fuel pressure.

But before doing so, either buy a wb02 or rent some wideband-on-a-stick time from a dyno shop to be certain.

Why run rich or find ways to do it ? I would say first get the turbo in and all the supporting mods on the car, then after all is said and done get yourself a wideband and tune your car from there till you get a decent a/f mix. Take your time, don't start planning way ahead.

That's a nice way to foul your plugs and have you car running sluggish along with a decrease in MPG. You will be fine with the stock ecu the way it is...for now.

and also im not putting on a cheap turbo im saving cash for a hahn stage 2 with a 20g turbo i dont wanna think back and say ohh shouldn't have wasted money on a weak or cheap part....if i wanted right now i could piece together ebay parts with good parts..but why would i do that when the rest of my stuff is top performance.... but thanks for the advice and 96TurboGS im keeping my fingers crossed so i wont run lean...
