Default Turbo Preparations

I have the following:

Apex'i SOHC VTEC kit
Blitz BOV
Apex'i VAFC
Walbro 255intank
DSM 450cc injectors

I was wondering if I could install the fuel pump AND the injectors before I do the turbo kit. I want to do this so that I would know what is wrong with what unlike if I installed EVERYTHING at once.

Would I run like **** on a rather stock D16Y8? or can I trim off some fuel with my VAFC?

Thanks!

v-afc
1-4k= -40%
4.5k= -38%
5k= -36%
5.5-7k= -35%

those are some numbers that people use for the vafc hack w/ a turbo installed. i dont know too much about it because i dont own a vafc myself yet.

So technically with my new turbo motor goin in I could install vafc, fuel pump, and injectors before I put my turbo on If i dropped the fuel with the vafc.....I was just thinkin this today because if you install all of that stuff at once and you got a problem thats a lot of stuff it could be.

install the injectors first and vafc. then lean out the mixture so you can hold a steady idle and drive around etc.... then install the fuel pump, then drive it around
and make sure everything runs good.

then drop the turbo in.


because if u put it on all at once and the car runs funny, u have to find out what the problem is...
