uhhh nnooooo. Lets see 12:1 fmu at 20psi of boost, thats 12psi per 1psi of boost so 20x12=240 plus the base 40psi...so yea... 280psi of fuel pressure. NICE

I wouldnt run over 10psi with a FMU its just wrong.

You spent all that money on a nice block and turbo setup...spend another $400 and get a hondata (or whatever you fancy)!! Fuel management is key in a happy turbo honda period.

Couldn't I trim that with the VAFC?? Don't understand the fuel part too well.

And I have a preobd engine so I would have to swap distributor and ecu too wouldn't I?? That knocks it up too a grand + with tuning.

Checkout http://www.zdyne.com/, they have an obd0 boost friendly ecu.

And before a hondata/zdyne etc, they used aftermarket ecus like a speedpro, haltech, tec, etc

12:1 is a static 12:1 ratio fuel pressure raiser. They cant be adjusted with vafc. However total fuel into the engine can be played with...but its gonna be pretty ruff tuning. Thats why i recommend not going over 10psi with a fmu..its just not very good fuel control.

Thanks for the link... What would I get rid of if I used an programmed ecu?? The FMU and the Vafc? Could I use the DSM injectors?

Ya. Either way you're gonna need larger injectors than stock to run 20psi.

Cool, I'll look into the Zdyne. What was the total cost??

The blockguard is currently on my motor and I'm adding the sleeves, rods, pistons. Forgot to take it off.

Is there anyway to run boost higher than 10psi with the vafc and DSM injectors?? Could I use check valves or a GM sensor to trick the computer???

Talk to jinxproof or autoexturbo. They both ran that setup pushing close to 1 bar.
