Default 12:1 FMU vs. Blue Box @5-7 psi - The Battle of the Untunables

Which setup would be better for a junkyard SOHC kit @ 5-7 psi? It comes with the 12:1 FMU and missing link. Will the greddy SOHC blue box work with a T25 junkyard kit? The turbo is close to a 15g in size and power output. Any input?

I believe that you will need to run 310cc injectors if you use the blue box because thats what it's calibrated for. So I would venture to say that the fmu would be a better choice....

i'd go with an 8:1 with 310cc injectors....

however, if the boost was kept at or below 6 psi, i'd opt for a 12:1 with fuel pump.

Okay here's the two options:

12:1 FMU with missing link and stock fuel pump - Limit: 6 psi

OR

Greddy blue box w/255 intank pump - Limit: 8 psi
