Just don't use an aluminum adapter plate...there's a few people who make them for a little under $100, otherwise you will have to get your machine shop to fab one up.

Also, you won't be boosting when your engine isn't under a load (ie WOT), that's a common myth, so no worries there.

I personally hate FMUs because of their semi-harsh transition into boost, having to use check valves, pushing crazy fuel pressure, and you can't tune it, but if you use one, make sure you upgrade your fuel pump (Walbro 255lph HP).

I'm personally going AFC+450cc injectors myself, much better setup, I can tune it with a wideband, don't have to use check valves, and keep stock fuel pressure.

well i already got my 290cc and i cant find the 450's so i guees ill do it this way...besides ill never up the boost..fear..

i can get an adjustable fmu...wat should i start it at?? 10:1
aslo wat do u mean by harsh transititon??
i got an inline pump...


i still need to konw where i could get a steel plate from....the home depot is 30 min away i dont wanna waste time finding out they dont carry sumtin like that..

You can get 450's at any junkyard, partstrader, ebay, everywhere for no more than $50.

Don't know about FMU settings, like I said I don't like FMUs

Home depot doesn't have any, If I were you I'd buy one pre-fab'd, because it will end up costing the same or more if you buy the block and have it machined.

Heres the plate. Their site also has tons of info on piecing together a junk yard turbo kit. I've personally met these guys and their very cool and honest.
