need help for turbo R
i'm currently have my R installing the turbo now (drag 3 gen)
and i dont have money to buy hondata for now, so should i use vafc or safc for now ?
i'm only running 4.4psi, so i dont think i'll need a bigger inject just yet. Will the FMU that come with drag kit food enough ?
anyhow that point is should one is better to use b4 hondata arrive ? S-AFC or V-AFC. and with stock injector with 4.4 PSI will the FMU come with drag kit good enough ?
thanks

yes, stay within 4.4psi, you can actually go to 6.5psi ish, just retard your ignition timing about 2-3 degrees or so..you'll be fine

Re: need help for turbo R (GettaluvR)
a 12:1 fmu might run a little rich. My advice to you is sell the inline fuel pump and the fmu and save a lil more $$ for a standalone. If not, the 12:1 fmu and the inline should be more than sufficient for a mere 4.5psi on a high compression motor.

Re: need help for turbo R (GettaluvR)

Re: need help for turbo R (GettaluvR)
This is just me, but if i were u, run the wastegate right open and run no boost, until u can get a computer/fuel control...
Save up for the comptuer u want, dont get a vafc/safc and swap again, its goign to cost u too much
