    i got yea, how much does a war package cost or megasquirt? there is someone local selling a use emanage unit for 300 obo???

    After reading that thread you posted I think that adjustable FPR you got is supposed to work in conjunction with an ems like megasquirt just to bring the fuel preasures up when that bit more is needed. They won't raise the fuel preasure when under boost for that you'll need an fmu. IIRC someone I know on my local forum was using 12:1 fmu. But his car was a budget beater that's only goal was to run 13 seconds down the 1/4 mile for $1300. He didn't car all much about have a reliable car to drive on the strees. Only to pull a quick 13 second pass.
    Yours isn't one of those I'm sure. You don't wanna be popping head gaskets leaving you stranded when out on a cruise.
    Build it to be reliable get yourself a standalone like Vems or Megasquirt or if that's too hard a Miller W.A.R m20 turbo tuning package will give you everything you need for safe reliable boosting. Then get yourself some better injectors not some mixed and matched ones.
    We're not trying to be assholes many of us have all done it and we're just trying to guide you in the right direction.

        Read, understand, and then buy :)

        Did u do it? Dont look that way from most of the questions..

        If ur pump delivers 255 lph i dont think thats the one to worry about.
        Mine does to and my m20b25 have had 3 times your boost for several years ;)

          I'm excited for this outcome. I like seeing the madness! Don't get me wrong, I'm all for budget setups, but man...we are telling you these for a reason. Do you ever wonder why people who turbo Honda's for super cheap always blow their engines? It's from reading what someone else posted, and doing what they did. But what you failed to do it read that a month after they started boosting, they blew their engine and swapped in another. m20's aren't as available as a d16, but go ahead and have fun. But in the end...it will be us laughing and saying "We told you so"
          My car may not be charged...yet, but I am reading and finding out what I need. I have a set of Volvo injectors from an XC90 (32lb'ers) and plan on buying/building a MS unit somewhat in the near future. Ask anyone who has turbo'd their car, it's all in the tuning. The saying "Cheap, Reliable, Powerful.....choose two" has been around for a long time for a reason.

            Honestly i would buy Whodwho's plug and play package he has if he was selling these a year ago i would have gotten it, your car will be up and running in under 30 minutes after you receive it. PM whodwho and ask for the price i honestly cant remember but it will be a good decision.

            as for the psi of my pump it depends on the fpr, bc as the boost goes up it increase the psi which increases the fuel. the ecu tunes around this which then allows you to run good afr's

                UPDATE: i traded a extra xbox 360 for a set of RC 36lb injectors with 1.500 miles on them, then they where flow matched, and sat on a shell for a while, now there gonna be monted to the intake, i got my intake all finished up with the gold paint job, soooo excited

                now here is a good question, the guy gave me a afm, its out of a ford mustang turbo, its identical in every way to my afm, and the guys said its calibrated to work for the 36lb fuel injector set up. any one ever heard of something like this idea???

                  I've got a ms1 with a v3.57 board built in to a bosch ecu. Received it in a trade. My laptop won't connect to it so I don't even want to deal with it. $200 and its yours.

                        the afm may work for that mustang but i doubt it will plug in to ours.

                          it plugs into my harness and my car starts and ides just fine, i was told to put the injectors in and drive it for a day, then at the afm, just because it starts up and ides fine doesn't mean its gonna work, but if it does it would be pretty sweet
