I was thinking of this combo because I went over to The Racer's edge and ordered 3 spoon motors and motec system exhaust. So I figure I could put in 8.8JE PISTON, EAGLE ROD with my 3 spoon motors.

Then Im gonna run 12:1FMU with 19psi and walbro pump. What about a supra pump will that work?

And one more thing, is pressure the same as flow?

I am going to turbocharge my integra GSR soon. The only thing is I don't have much money at all (I work at McDonalds) so I don't have money for stuff like a boost gauge and stuff.

My car has to be 100% reliable because it is my daily drive to and from work. Since the turbo is always spinning and making boost I don't want to be boosting on the freeway? Should I buy a boost controller and turn the boost to zero?

I can't afford to fix my motor if it breaks...so I need something reliable. I heard that the 12:1 FMU and Walbro intank work great together!

Also, will DC headers work well with this setup? How about an AEM intake? i heard cold air is the way to go.

You won't be boosting unless you open the throttle really wide. If you're just cruising you may be boosting like 1 psi but that probably wont blow your engine.

Since all yous know your ****...answer me this.

How well will 8.8 JE PISTON, EAGLE ROD work with my JRSC? I want absolute reliability. I fell with me pushing 356.98wbhp every day that some internal modifications are necessary. I hit 405 once, but that was after I messed up adjusting the EBC..........

No! Are you silly? DC headers are NOT a good choice with turbo setups. The aluminum, that they're made of, can't withstand the amount of intercooled boost running through them, and they tend to crack because of the extremely cold, compressed air that the intercooler pushes through them. I suggest going with Greddy copper headers or Mugen zinc ones. They withstand the cold temperatures much better.

P.S. Make sure you go with a 4-1-1 header setup, that way all 4 fuel injectors will be activated when the VTEC kicks in, giving you additional boost, and prevent your engine from running too lean!


Hope this helped!

8.8 JE PISTON, EAGLE ROD is my wet dream. i've seen this setup alone, with NO MOTOR run low 10's in the 1/4. with the JRSC you will be in the low 5's, AND get daily drivability, great gas milage and last 4EVA...

8.8 JE PISTON, EAGLE ROD 4EVA!!!
