because FMU's are not worth the money, a 255 walbro would be good.

Spend the money and have your car properly tunned because it will save you in the long run

I know every single person on this board (almost) will say do not get a FMU.

A FMU will be fine if you have to wait a little before you can tune it. As long as you don't beat on it everyday you should be fine.

if i have my turbo installed and dont have the $ right away to get it tuned, would 5psi be a safe number to run daily?

0 psi is a good/safe amount to run if your untuned

seriously, don't waste your time / money / engines if you don't have the money to get tuned.. just wait till u have everything u need & the cash to get it tuned b4 u force more air into your engine

i have a friend that raced his car everyday and pushed it hard constantly on a FMU for about 2 months. His car is now tuned and is still running strong. maybe he was lucky?
