I have a few questions about my greddy kit.
my setup:
its the kit for 92-95 civic, going on a del sol(d16z6). I have the small fmic, type s bov, bluebox, boost gauge, 2.25 exhaust.
1. Is the bluebox that bad? Havent heard much of anything good. But i really need to get my car rolling within a week or so and i have it. Anyone have horror stories with that thing?
2. I would like to upgrade my fuel management soon(as in mid summer). My problem is that i live in northern Minnesota so id prolly have to drive 150 miles to minneapolis to get it tuned. Unless someone knows a place in Duluth
. can i get recommendations for my future fuel management, something that i can drive a ways to get tuned. Ill have somewhere in the ballpark of $600-700 for that. I really dont wanna cheap out on fuel and i would like to run 10 psi on a tuned setup.
3. Does anyone have a write-up or info on the oil feed line installation? im having some issues with this. I have the oil feed kit from fast-turbo.com
i know these are pretty well covered questions, i have searched. Its hard learning everthing off the internet, hondas arent a big thing around here.

1.. the fmu "blue box" is ment for 5-7 psi..also made to pass smog...if your planning to run any type of fuel system.. figure out the rout you want.. honda with injectors... i had a 2000 civic ex withg the greddy kit.. i threw out the fmu and went with the afc hack with 10 psi.. worked like a charm...

I've ran the blue box up to 11 psi on my D16Y8, it still runs rich. Stock injectors and pump are good for up to 200whp. All you need to do is retard your timing at the distributor 1-2 degrees and you're good. I don't suggest running more than 9 psi on a stock fuel system but it works and I know because I've run it like that for months.
Blue box isn't as bad *** the asshats on here say it is. They either installed it wrong or have never owned it.

Im runing blue box, and tuning it via fpr, u have to, the dam thing DUMPS so much fucken fuel it bogs the dam car @ higher boost, i run 9 to 10 psi on a all stock d16y7 with the blue box, 37 psi idel fuel presure and 45 WOT, works cool, im selling it soon.
the blue box really is a piece of shat... if you want to keep it Greddy, the e-manage is a very user-friendly option and much better(especially when it comes to controlling the injectors) than the hack... my .02
