nope! it comes with everything, complete. if your not boosting a lot as in over 8 pounds, you dont ned it. the kit gives u fmu and inline fuel pump. if u want to upgrade it, get either the cheaper way....vafc and injectors or honda or aem ems, and etc.

You will find a grip load of info about this subject if you use the search feature.

That price is decent I'd say, because of the free clutch and all of the other free stuff. For 10 psi, I don't believe the 12:1 fmu and the inline fuel pump would supply a high enough fuel psi to be safe. I don't like the inline/fmu setup, but you can make it work. I would sell both of those, and some of the extra free stuff you get, and then get a walbro 255 intank fuel pump, bigger injectors, and a hondata/aem ems.

It will cost a bit more, but you will be much better off down the road.

best kit for the power/money
I would probably ditch the FMU and do it properly.. get the AEM EMS, injectors, with AEM wideband O2 for reliability, and maybe a block guard
you should be able to easily squeeze another 100 extra ponies out of the LS motor with that kit

this is what i can tell you from experience, do it right the 1st time and dont waste your hard earned money like me and others.

1. GET A REAL TRBO KIT, such as the rev hard or drag kit
2. Junk the retarded oil return lines they give you and get the REAL kit from flamco-t (something like that, forgot his name)
3. drop the fuel management they giev you and get the AEM EMS, it controls everything (hella lot better then hondata if you got money)
4. bigger injectors
5. HOOK it up and thats easily 100 extra power with the right tuning.

Cost----> turbo + injectors+ oil return lines+ AEM EMS= GRAND TOTAL OF 5K plus install and tuning if you dunno how to!

i tell ya, turbo is expensive

yeah thats about what i thought it would be. i am going to have a friend install it. he has done many motor swaps and turbo eclipses. plus i can probably sell some of the stuff i dont need and get a few bucks out of it.
