write up i cant do cause i am too lazy but run a small turbo t3/t4 and you can actually run up to 12psi on stock motor on the safe side but i know people who ran 22psi on stock motor it didnt last them that long but long enough to say it could be done.

getting it to run like stock can cost money, reason being is you need a good kit to start out with, something that isnt garbage and something that wont break fast.

then you need, fuel management, engine management (ecu), great tune

but that is if you get legit parts and do it right.

not alot of people do that. but tuning is key to getting your car to run like stock, and make respectable power

actually, if you are wanting to have the car run like stock.

TUNING & ECU will be your key parts in getting the car to run right.

safc hack will be the least possible option to getting your car to run like stock as safc doesnt do barely any of which a chipped ecu can do.

tuning will get your timing,ignition,fuel curve ect set right.

but again, you can get into a good ammount of money just getting your car to run right, most people put alot of concern with the turbo kit itsself to get a motor to run good, however its tuning and your managements that get your car to run correctly.

turbo kits just get it to perform to its maximum potential

With the right tuning, you can have your set-up running the same as stock and even get better fuel economy than stock. It's all in the tune... I prefer to use hondata. You can get more info at http://www.hondata.com

when you have a turbo that you have to rev to 6k to get to spool, its not hard at all

I got better gas mileage after tunnig my car on crome while turbo. If you are boosting alot and redlineing it you will eat alot of gas but for normal crusing you can tune your part throtle map for good gas milage.
When I ran my wide band o2 with my p30 ecu and not turbo I was suprised to see my air/fuel ratio was between 13.5-12.5. Combine that with my b16 tranny =about 16-18 mpg. After tunnig and turbo regular boosting =22-25mpg.

By the way I have been running t3 .48/.60 at 7-9lb of boost on my stock b16a2 for almost 2 years now. In about a week or two I will have a larger t3/04e 57 trim turbo can wiat.

im a pretty conservative driver when i want to be. my highway mpg is mid 30's. drove to boston and back on a tank of gas about 390 miles give or take. i took it pretty easy on this trip since it was the first day i had it on the road. sure if i was running full boost, and got on it all the time it would be in the single digits. but i know the setup is capable of getting better than stock gas mileage when im not boosting it all day.

crome, hondata, or neptune are all fair priced or free and work great.
