Re: wanting to turbo the z6, the RIGHT way (moops vs moors)
i thought you wanted MORE fuel with turbo cuz your would run hella lean on stock injectors and blow your **** up? or was that sarcasm? anyways, thanks for savin me money on the rail, and saying no to the fmu, just a pump and injectors sounds good to me. thanks

Yes, you want more fuel when being turbocharged... but with the fmu you have no way to fine tune your air/fuel's to the specified ratio that you want. On top of that it increases your fuel pressure dramatically. If you are running a 12.0:1 rate regulator, with 8psi of boost your fuel pressure will be about 140psi.
That is why running a nice EMS will not only control your fueling needs, but it will control your ignition timing which with boost needs to be retarded.
