bad talking my turbo
hello :
I am cory the owner of the silver civic that was in the performance edge booth at import fest . I see some people we giving miss leading info about my car at the show . This car is presently running at 5 psi for normal everyday driving which gave it 168 whp , And when i was running at 8 psi it ran 232 whp . The car stock with an aem intake and dc sport header ran 101 whp . And to do with the products it self the header was mad in cali the piping was pent by my friends not in cali . The setup could be reduced in price but I used a t3/t04e turbo with a 60 trip istead of a smaller one so there is room for improvments . and the price is 5500.00 U.S complete i am not sure who said parts only that would be crazy . I dont know if it was mistakin or it just came out wrong but either way this is the real story right from my mouth .. The fuel managment is by slpit second....

How is the fuel system done? You running on a aftermarket fuel rail and injectors? I guess that means you have the return line on there too. Also, are you running anykind of fuel computer? (stand alone/piggyback needed?) I've been trying to find these answers for so long, can u provide me with info of this stuff?

the fuel system took a while to figure out in this car . we started by using a 1996 ford mustang fuel pump and then we put 2 350 cc injectors firing into the throttle body which is run by a split second fuel management system . otherwise the hard part was where to aim the other injectors it took a few trys to get it right ...

I really want to run against your car a the track in the spring. I am sorry if you took what I said before offensive but, as far as the 8psi 232whp???? I don't know cause I talk alot to another one of the members on the site who has a Turbo EX with the same set-up as you and he's running 197whp at 8psi so... Anyways See you at the track one day! I'll be at sparta in the spring.

So by using the mustang pump, wouldn't you have a greater fuel pressure going to your normal fuel rail causing a rich condition on narrow throttle? Or did u merely put a FPR between the rail and pump?
