11386, fuel question
Posted by chrysler kid, Apr-07-04 12:14 PM
i recently bought an safc and i was wondering if i got a 255pump if the safc would be enough to lean out the mixture with the t25 turbo


also my car missfired or sumthin BAD this morning. i mean it was like the engine skipped a beat. i just changed the plugs and plug wires. i got the platnum bosch (onlything available) and some other brand wires

you should only use NGK's. Why would you run a walbor 255 with stock turbo and injectors? Kinda overkill. I would just wait before installed it. A rewired stock pump will provide more than enough fuel for the ammount of air a T-25 will push.

NGK BPR6ES only. Take that other shit out.

Yes the SAFC will control the 255 enough to run with a T-25. But why? DO what Tony said and wait till you have a need for a 255.

well this kinda pertains to me too--I'll probably have time to say install the fuel pump, injectors, and SAFC in one day, but then may need my car to run out and get stuff (i'm finishing my parent's basement this summer).....is this at all possible, or is it just better to do EVERYTHING at once? Wouldn't it also be better to do one thing at a time, ideally, to work out any kinks before adding something else to the mix?

everything being
16g (Evo?)
New O2 housing
Down pipe
550s (660's?)
SAFCII
255 non-hp
hopefully ($$$ permitting) front mount, otherwise front mount a few weeks later.

vs.

255
550's
SAFCII

THEN

16g
02
dp
FMIC

i have a 14b just sitting on my desk right now, so the t25 would be coming off soon hopefully.

ill have to go to vato zone to get the ngk's. what makes them so much better than the others?


i figure on stock fuel system i can run 12-14lbs of boost, and with a 255 i should be able to run max for the 14b..

NGKs are stock. They are just best.

yeah stick with the NGK's...plus they're CHEAP so you can replace them often

what about the injectors? You could put a "sump pump" in your tank to feed your injectors but they can only flow so much fuel...
And you'd be very surprised at what a 14B is capable of as far as how much boost you can run. On a properly set up car, there have been 2 known people so far to break 11's!!!

Is this vato zone like a auto zone ? If so they dont sell the ngk's. Atleast they dont in my area. You can get them froma regular autoparts store.
