Default best turbo setup help

i want to go FI, but i dont want to half *** any of it. i am asking for the best route to go. a list of parts to buy, maybe some good articles or threads to read about going FI. as well as some of the mechanical draw backs. My goal is to put 300 at the wheels. so i am not really going for anything far fetched.

thanks guys,
Doug

first off, do a search on this topic...
that post leaves alot of information to be determined...i mean what engine do you have, what are the internals...

300 whp can be had on most good b-series setups between 10-14psi...

I'm new to the forced induction...but I've learned alot through the archives on this board...SEARCH honestly is your best friend.....and budget...with the setup i have with the PowerFC standalone...it's much cheaper than a kit without a standalone.....honestly....it's more fun to piece your own turbo KIT together.....and you'll know your car better....I recommend SEARCHing then piecing your kit together.....just my .02¢

Perfect....go use the search and find some information about turbos and stuff...and i think you should just build your own kit so you can get the parts you want. I think all you need is about 10-12psi (depending on what turbo) and you should be hitting almost 300@the wheels but remember its all about tuning so you should invest in a good fuel mangament system...hondata is probably the best money wise.
