99117, does this sound like I'm on the right track? Posted by bigrob3232, Feb-10-07 08:23 AM
I have a T3/T4 turbo 60 trim with internal wastegate, Hks ssqv, Walbro 225lph,OBX equal length exhaust manifold, FMIC+2.5" piping,I need a FCD,I have the missing link but i'm going to change. I'm getting ready to buy Zeitronix Zt-2, I'm still doing research on fuel upgrade. I think I'm forgetting something but I cant think of it.

Your forgetting a good exhaust manifold.
Also, I sell the FCD's. PM me if you want one.
Your also forgetting a FMU or SFMU, FPR whatever.

yeah I have a 12:1 Fmu but I want something better any suggestions? how much are you selling FCD's for? The manifold might be an OBX but it fits well and the welds on it a really good. I just wanted to "test" it if you will I'm going to make a different one later...that I'm sure alot of dsmers are going to like and want..I'll be sure to post about that later

A 12:1 FMU will be good up to 8 psi on stock injectors. If you are looking for something else, an SFMU is a nice upgrade. To utilize it to a further extent, you will need bigger injectors. It all depends what your goals are. Are you built or plan on building down the road?

I'm not built yet...I do have another motor out of the car that I'm going to build...I'm not sure what internals I should go with yet. I want more then 300hp I know that but I dont want to go from stock straight into 300+...yio know what I mean if I'm going to break anything over something common sense...I want to do it before I've reached the end.I want to learn through experience I guess.

that's cause you're on the right track.
As far as the manifold when you say you test fit it and it fits nicely, did you mean you test fitted it on the engine out of the car or on the engine in your car. I'm sure there are some of us that would like to know (and see pics) b/c bolting up to a motor out of the car is a lot different than if it fits nicely in the car without getting in the way of anything or putting the turbo in the way of anything
As for your fuel setup, I'd say decide where you wanna go now so you don't buy stuff you're gonna turn around and sell after a little while just to upgrade. You can use it with a stock motor and will be able to provide the necessary fuel for more power when you put in the built motor

I test fitted the manifold on my rolled over car. the core support was smashed into the stock manifold, I managed to pull the radiator out and mount the new manifold just to see how it fit...it will for sure clear the radiator but not sure about stock fans. maybe aftermarket. the turbo clears the starter as well I read the newest post on here, there were a few people concerned about that. my turbo is a garret t3t4 st3...I did not take pics but I plan on putting most of the parts on my car this weekend to start getting it turboed. I'm going to take plenty of pics for that and I will post them then...oh the only thing I didnt like about the manifold is it sits kinda close to the ts housing just like the other guys.
