You need to tune it good and it will be safe.

What is your fuel management setup?

No need for the AEM FR, or Cam Gears (unless used for tuning).

What is your head setup?

 

well yeah i have a shop nearby thats gona handle the tuning for me! and my head setup is all stock just the cams and FR..and i was wondering if i would need an aftermarket fuel pump i dont think i do cuz of my low psi but wat do u guys think! and i also have 440 inj should i throw them on?

 

You should replace fuel pump, just to be on safe side. Also it is good if you want to crank up your boost later. They only cost around $80-90. And also you need bigger injecotrs. Those 440's are fine. Fuel is on of the most important things when you are turboing your car. Thats why you need both of those to make sure everything runs smooth, and that you get plenty of fuel. Also get some 2-step colder spark-plugs (NGK BKR7E).

 

good info bro... any more suggestions?

 

I dont know what management you are running. But you can get chipped ECU from http://www.j-k-tuning.com/. Thats what im running, and I have no problems at all. Been running 10psi on my stock LS for 6 months. Also im running on CROME tuning software. Depending on what manifold you run, you might need(probably will) slim fans. I got 2 slim fans for about $80 at local shop(autozone). Get a new manifold gasket too. Also use higher octane fuel, like 93 or 91.

yea im thinking of gettin my ecu chipped and the guy thats gona do it is a cool dude owns a shop...and as for the manifold i have a turbonetics and i just recetnly bought a exhaust gasket so i think im good... i think it will fit just right!! and ur saying ur LS is completely stock? WOW thats impressive 6 months on 10 psi!! do u baby it?

 

I had to shave part of the block webing on my motor to fit my turbo. I got t3t04e 57 trim, its bigger turbo. Yea, running 10psi daily with no problems at all on my 131,000 mile motor. And, no I dont baby it, I boost all the time 10psi, every single day. Pulls like crazy. You might want to get some sticky tires, because our fwd hondas suck.

 

question really is


are you a taco bell crunchy gordita wrap ?

 

hopefuly i dont have to cut my block but if its necessary then yea...like i said man thats impressive! now i regret gettin rid of my LS hehe! how much power to the wheels are u pushing! and yea i am planing to get sum bf goodrich Gforce! cuz just with my b16 i dont get trac.

 

Im supposed to go on dyno next weekend, so we will see. I got some Hankook RS-2 tires on my car.They are alot stickier then some cheap ones. This is where I got them. They have some good prices and quick shipping too.http://onlinetires.com/

 

back from the dead....! I cant decide on what turbo to get! Im leaning more on the T3 what do you all think?
