81249, anyone running around 8psi with stock press reg?
Posted by 97grnRS, Jan-10-05 03:34 PM
well after much discussion i sold my zex dry nitrous kit and i bought a turbo and some stuff for it . but i have a 97 rs. that it will be going on. and i was wondering if anyone has run 8psi off the stock fuel system? ill prob use a warlbro FP. but as far as an fmu or something is it really necessary or can i just add it later if i want. also what about the missing link > is that needed right away also? my turbo is off a subaru legacy . stock actuated wastegate is 8Psi.

Good fucking luck. Goofy 3 bolt flange or some shit. Go get something that's less of a pain in the ass to install. You got the right idea, just wrong...uh...just wrong.

Search...ALOT.

All I have to say is:

























AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

thats awesome. throw that shit in there. Fuck the rules. Fuck what everyone else here is running. Just. Do. It.
please do it. I will paypal you 5 dollards if you do it. and another 5 if you take pics of the aftermath too.


EDIT: Here you will need some of this to keep the turbo from flying around.

you need to compensate for the fuel youll need while boosting. you CAN use the stock injectors, though they will be pretty maxed out. You need an FMU that hooks up to your intake manifold to get a signal, telling it that theres positive manifold pressure and it need more fuel.

but shit.

search or just read every post on the first 3 pages of this section :P
