#108258, "shes turbo!"




          

So about a day and a little beer later my rs is now a rs-t. She runs good at 6psi and higher and I start leaning out bad. My stupid adjustable fuel pressure regulator dosent do anything apparently though because it dosent matter where I try to adjust the screw it dosent change the a/f ratio. I do have to get a better fuel setup sooo.... what do you guys think? 95 eclipse, a/r .50 trim turbo, stock injectors, stock fuel pump, innovative db series wideband, no ignition or fuel mods, front mount, external 38mm wastegate, manual boost controller, and fcd(though it still hasent come in the mail) Thats kind of a run down of what shes got now. all suggestions are appreciated!

1995 eclipse rs-t. Might as well be a ford because I have to fix or repair daily...

You need a HP fuel pump and a fmu.

and its all better when you do it yourself. cheaper too.

Don't boost unless you have a rising rate fuel pressure regulator or you will be building your motor before you are ready.

Agreed, you need an FMU of some sort and a new fuel pump...
Right now you're playing with fire. I'd personally remove/open the WGA so you don't build any boost until those two problems are rectified.

Yea I read the 420a sleeper posts and think the warlbo 255 high flow fuel pump with it rewired and a 7:1 fmu will do the trick. If not the 7:1 fmu maby the 12:1 fmu and the air bleed valve just to b sure she's not too lean. I should have thought of the fuel system first before boosting haha I run her to school everyday I just make sure she dosent pull any boost, I pulled the vacuum line off the wastegate but that just made it boost quicker?! Anyways I put the line back on and am light on the throttle. Gotta wait till payday then for the stuff to ship so hopefully she's good until next week.

Just take the spring out of the wastegate until you get your fuel supplies. That'll ensure that you see NO boost until you're ready.

Buy a Walbro, it's $20 more than what you're looking at, and they're proven.

Pulling the vacuum line off of your wastegate isn't going to do anything other than make it see atmosphere at all times. (Sorry, I was assuming you were internally gated.) Just pull the spring so it can open freely. Until you get your fuel system reworked, that is.

what do you think of this pump?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/High-Pressure-High-Volume-255LPH-Intank-Fuel-Pump-255-/360294324564?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Model:Eclipse&hash=item53e3371954#ht_2862wt_970

It says good to 90psi but I will be needing at least 115psi... Think with the rewire it could push out 115?

And cheap fmu?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/UNIVERSAL-FMU-FUEL-MANAGEMENT-UNIT-12-1-CIVIC-INTEGRA-/220683501809?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3361c300f1#ht_2975wt_958

it says integra or whatever but a fuel line is a fuel line. haha
