98447, custom turbo question?
Posted by Idontgotnothn88, Dec-04-06 07:45 PM
prolly a stupid ? but, If i wanted to make my own custom turbo kit at 8psi max (for now with stock internals), is it a must to have some sort of fuel management or can i leave it out?

at the minimum you will need a 12:1 fmu and a walbro 255lph fuel pump, no way around it.

and if your lucky, your injectors wont jam at 80psi like mine did and lean you out at 4 pounds of boost or so. if you want to save yourself some money in the long run and buy 4- 30# injectors from me for 50$ you can boost 10- 11psi on them. i have the other 4 in my car now.

you need either an electronic fcd or a missing link (unless if your car's a 95) If you want an fcd, one of the members here makes them, you can check out the For sale section and you should see a post by him on the first page

edit: here's a link http://forums.2gnt.com/dcboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=16&topic_id=99784&mode=full

he only has a few posts here, but he is well respected on tuners, actually he's a mod over there

edit: and another well respected member that makes them:
