I'm going to be boosting pretty soon and I was wondering if it would be OK to drive it about 60+ miles with DSM 450cc Injectors and a Walbro 255lph Fuel Pump without any sort of tuning whatsoever. The reason is because after boosting, I plan to drive the car about 60 miles to a shop to get it tuned with Hondata and was wondering if I'd be able to make it.

 

not a good idea man!! You will barely be able to idle those 450cc and they will be dumping mad fuel..what engine management do you intend on running?

 

Drive it over there on your stock injectors with your wastegate tied open or you might not make it. Your choice though.

 

stock injectors and walbro 255 is fine, but don't put those 450cc's in!

 

Think about this, with 450cc injectors and nothing to control it? Like giving a cocky stang driver a Viper, nothing will control him.

Stay with stock injectors, and swap them when ur at the shop like what the above people said

 

Tailor it to a tuner.

 

It should also be possible to drick with the stock injectors and normal wastegate.
But you have to keep the car so that you don't build boost. Its possible if you can control your right food ;-)

i boost gauge will help... you are not fast but it should be safe if you keep everything slow.

well if you are going to buy/get hondata, then call the shop and have them send u a basemap so u can at least drive it over there to get it FINE tuned

 

just drive over there with stock injectors and dont smash the gas. if your dont floor it you wont boost.. it's that simple..drive normal.

I already have Hondata S200B but it's not installed. Excuse my noobness, but when you say to get a basemap.. do you mean have them send me one thru email or something and I have to program it onto my Hondata somehow? If that's the case, I have no clue how to do that stuff.

 

Send you a basemap chip so you can stick that in your chipped ECU and get your car to the tuner.

 

So it would be okay to drive there with stock injectors and the Walbro 255lph (non-High Pressure) Fuel Pump?

Also, would it be okay to drive there with the resistor box for the 450cc injectors installed with stock injectors? I wanna get as much done as possible before taking it to the tuner so I don't get charged up the *** for other simple installs.

 

Stock Injectors, no resistor box., and DON'T make boost. You'll be fine like that.

 

drive there with nothing on your charge pipes to the tb, diconnect it, it will be hella slow, u will be ok

dont do this. It's a bad idea to disconnect the charge pipe as it might make the turbo overspin. just leave it connected and drive slow.

 

put in your stock injectors and take off your wastegate...thats what i did when i drove like 10 miles to get my car tuned...only problem would be heatbuild up from the exhaust gases, but idk, its a lot better than a blown motor.

so you suggest he drive for the 60 miles without a wastegate and have exhuast gases just shooting out his manifold??? do u realize how hot those gases are? leave it all connected and just dont boost. just have the stock injector and no resistor box. the fuel pump is ok.

 

stock injector, stock pump, unhook the chargepipe.

seriously, have it towed to the shop already

That's like asking if you should bang Jenna Jameson without a condom.

Don't risk it, just get some fuel management first, then go to the dyno and tune.

 

Take out your wastegate spring and you can hit any rpm/load, with no worry.

You could probably run 450's but i wouldnt suggest it.

 

Sort of a related topic, if you have a VAFC, cant you just lean the **** out of your car to compensate for the 450cc injectors? Like, is it safe?

dont mean to hijack, but the thought just like popped in

Tow it, I'm guessing your trying to save some $$ by doing the simple work yourself?
Call the shop and see if they have any friends in the towing biz (they almost always do), they may have a deal worked out with one company and the tow dude may cut your rate to go to the shop.

 

i think the reason anyone makes these threads is that they hope someone will say," yah, it'll work, you can do it" even tho they know they really shouldn't.

 

That's not the reason why I made it. I made this thread because I didn't know whether or not it was safe to drive like that. Anyways.. I'm just going to drive there with stock injectors, stock pump, with charge pipe disconnected; so the car would be pretty much like stock.
