re

heylo all thanxs for the replys

1) how much boost is ok for an auto untill the gear starts slipping?

2)i am not going to change the injectors but instead going to add in additional injectors . but doing this will give me more fuel but is tht ok ? cause i have no return line

3)right now , my auto (with turbo 4psi boost) can take on a manual any time (i have actually killed many manualN/A cars ) is tht ok? am i going right casue i had very little knowledge when i started this project and now my budget is killing me .

as long as you can ensure that your not running too lean, a lot of people go with the rsx injectors.

we actually have no dyno here so its very hard to know the actual results.
secondly i have the new civic (returnless line) auto.

will it b a good idea to trade it off for the older one (return line) manual? without getting any cash on top ?

could u tell me how the O2 sensor looks like? which car has it installed in it ? (its very hard to get after market parts over here ) but there are alot of original parts of cars . mayb if any car comes with it , then i can find it . i also noticed the my turbo time (apexi) also has this O2 and A/F ratio option in it which doesnt seem to work and the o2 shows me 4.19 .

Hmmmmm

1) depends on too many factors: mileage, year, hp, tranny cooler, converter, etc etc
2) More Air + No More Fuel = You buying new motor
3) See 1)

Read the turbo FAQ post before making anymore threads. That should answer 95% of questions.

For two, I HIGHLY suggest changing your username, or I'll do it for ya
