Fmu with chipped ecu?
Just wondering if i still need the fmu with a chipped ecu...my buddy says that i do but i dont think i do..i got an ecu chipped and set up for some 395cc injectors so i would think that is all i need right..?

Get bigger than 395cc injectors. You're going to probably upgrade in the future, so you might as well go bigger now. If you run properly sized injectors you do not need to run an FMU with uberdata/crome/etc.

WTF?
If you don't care about your motor give it to me. I'll put it to good use.

I relate that to cutting the top off a condom and saying "I'm only going to expletive her half as long as I normally do, so I'll use the rest of it after I get her pregnant"

i was told that 395s were good for my setup at 5psi...if the motor blows because of other reason than fuel cuz thats not a problem..then i would upgrade to bigger injectors and all...

I don't want to seem like an *** also, but usually you can get up to 550's for just a few bucks more, and up to 850's for no more than 20% more than 395's. 395cc's @42psi fuel would get you 275whp tops, and most stock b16's won't see over that with 10psi on a bigger t3. 5psi with a bigger t3/t04 will get close, but should be okay even if it spikes a few psi.
At most, an adjustable FMU (say 3:1 or 4:1) would be needed for more than 275whp, but those tend to cost as much as injector sets.
