Callin all fuel guru's

I read the fuel system faq, but now I would like to know what You guys have in your setup.

Is your setup working good?

I was thinking greddy emange and some extra injectors, would that be all I would need? Or do i need to add an inline fuel pump.
This good for up to 10psi?

I have SF fmu set-up. It works fine, runs a little rich. The pump is loud and tends to wear out fast. This occurs cuz the pump still runs when not in boost. Can easily be fixed by installing a toggle switch or pressure sensor in the charge pipe. It is a pretty easy set-up and is perfect for n00bs or those that don't wanna pay for dyno tuning.

I have a greddy e-manage and type s injectors that i will be installing in a few months. Problem with this is........you will need a wideband to street tune, which cost over $300. As Opto_isolator and Dezod have found out........there are a few kinks that need to be worked out.

IMO........the best set-up would be the e-manage, type s injectors and a complete return fuel set-up. A return set-up will run you approx. $600-$700. With this set-up, expect to throw down at least another $500 for dyno tuning. BTW.........even without the return fuel set-up.........you still should hit the dyno.

vtecd17 is an unknown quantity at this point
Well depending on what Dezod throws down for their fuel system, I am going with rsx injectors, and the e-manage to mess with my fuel. Most definitely gonna get it dyno tuned to make sure im not running too lean or rich.
