Ok... my turbo kit is on... and fully working.... have worked most of the kinks out... well i'd love to say all... but on turbo'd cars that never seems to stay true for too too long... anywayz the guy that install everything in the end for me said that I should barely boost it and only boost it as little as possible before i get a Vortech FMU and proper dyno tuning with a VAFC or SAFC whatever... lemme know if this is totally 100% true or not... thanks guys!!! this guy has really just scared the **** out me right now lol... i'm afraid to boost it over like 3500 RPM's!!!


HELP!!!!

What do you have for fuel mods right now? If you have no fuel mods you shouldn't be boosting more than about 1-2psi. But don't boost man...

Have you done research on any of this stuff? Please list what you have for current fuel mods.

You can buy RSX-S injectors and an emanage and tune with that. A vortec fmu with inline fuel pump and tuning with either emanage or vafc2. A couple injectors with a custom plate mounted on the tb is another possibility too, though you need an injector controller with that. How could you boost without fuel!!!

Adding all that air with no extra fuel? Avoid making boost until you get that issue resolved, or you'll be replacing your motor.

Very True. Or you could buy the return fuel system from SLP.

can't i tune with a SAFC too? i thought this was fine to tune with if i don't wanna mess with the whole VTEC thing? lemme know for clarification, and is a walbro 255 an inline pump??? thanks guys!!!

Walbro is not an in-line pump. You need something like the MSD on our site. An SAFC would be fine to tune with.

Yes SAFC or VAFC2 are fine to tune fuel with. But you definately want an inline pump and a regulator if you don't plan on converting to return or replacing the injectors.

How much is the SLP return kit costing now?? have they finished and decided on their price? I say they do a lil groupbuy... the more people that buy em it gets cheaper... but ya... also

the SAFC version 1 works for our cars right? just to clarify

and to clarify the Walbro 155 and 255 LPH pumps are inline pumps... so i can get one of those off my friend brand new for $40... and then an FMU... what disc should i use? 10:1 or 12:1?

 
Rep Power: 0

This is an in-tank pump not an in-line pump. Walbro pumps are in-tank.


This is an in-line pump.

well, i just read that u blew ur motor..........so i guess u just answered ur own question. Sorry bro.

 
Rep Power: 326

For the FMU... buy a 10:1.

But yeah, Walbro does make external fuel pumps. Most expensive one is $140 and it performs a lot like the Walbro 255L HP in-tank.

CLICK HERE, THEN CLICK ON EXTERNAL UNDER FUEL PUMPS

You can buy any Walbro pump on that site. Pretty good prices too.
