Default if i get a turbo kit will i have to .......

i tried to post this in the tech section but all they say is use the search blah blah blah. i know this has been answered before but i still have some questions! i am getting a 92-95 greddy kit for my zc and was wondering if i have to upgrade my fuel pump or can i just use the fmu im a little confused there? keep in mind ill be running low boost 5-8 psi max, and one more will the down pipe that comes with the kit work? thanks sorry if you guys have answered this before but i couldnt find it anywhere!

[quote]heres some info http://thenew.gamesbbs.com/~dmoore/turbo.htm so i dont need to upgreade my fuel pump as long as i use the fpr that comes with the greddy kit? thats what i got out of it! he said you can use more pressure with stock injectors or less pressure with after market injectors! i think ill use the stock injectors for a while and then upgrade to a zdyne and better injectors when i get some more money!

Speaking for myself, I have the D-series Greddy kit on my D16Y8 motor and am running about 7psi. I am currently using just the blue box for fuel management. Since you have the ZC, you can't use that FMU and will have to get a boost dependent FMU like Vortech and check valves/missing link. I know there are others out there that run the older version Greddy kit (black box and Vortech FMU) without an upgraded fuel pump for low boost 5-8psi on the D16Z6 just fine.

Get an airtex and a 12:1 and be done with it.

Then read more, and upgrade your fuel set-up later.
