Hey everybody,

I was wondering what everyone thinks of this. I plan on getting the Greddy kit for the Prelude comes out with the 18G. I was thinking about using the 18G for smogging the car with the Greddy FMU. When I'm not smogging the car though I want to run a 20G series turbo.

my questions are:

1) what FMU should I use for the 20G? the FMU for the 18G wont work, or will it?

2) do all Mits xxG series turbos have internal WG right? if so, how much boost will the WG for the 18G handle? how about the 20G?

3) has anyone heard or of, or swapped out the Greddy FMU for a different fuel mgmt. system? I want to run a standalone or maybe Hondata, will they be able to work with the Greddy kit?

EDIT:4) here's another one I just thought of, will I need a different mount/flange for an Apex'i twin chamber BOV? I dont like the Greddy BOV's, they dont *pshh* long enough from what I've heard.

anybody?

20G plus FMU???

With the kinda boost a 20G is capable of, I think you would want some other sort of fuel control besides a FMU. Something along the lines of hondata...it works with any kit.

Plus, with a stock block you can't even push the 18G to its limits.

I've got the block covered, I was just wondering If I could upgrade from an 18G to a 20G. I was also wondering If I could use the same turbo manifold for both, I might have to wait till the kit comes out to find out though.

just out of curiousity though what's the max HP the 18G can push?

Why build the block if you aren't using a standalone? Or are you planning one near in the future?

BlueShadow

cause I'm paranoid like that nah seriously, I was gonna use the Greddy FMU (Blue Box, Black Box whatever you call it), then eventually I would build the block and maybe get a standalone.

I haven't decided yet what order I'm gonna do it.

Turbo, buildup, standalone, 20G or
buildup, turbo, 20G, standalone

there are still some things I'm trying to sort out
