yeah, with well sorted out, and rich/conservative tuning, it would run fine.

it would probably be pretty quick too.

thats extremely high compression on cast pistons with turbo. AFCs advance your timing, with that setup i see trouble

I love how people act like the AFC hack is the worst thing thats hit the planet for fuel management... Its quite a bit better then the FMU (which can work just fine with proper tunning and be quite safe) and if you deal with the timming issue as it advances right as it goes into boost, it will run just fine for a long long time. Many people on HT run it and have never had issues with it. Id run more boost then 5lbs if you plan on running the AFC. Its actually safer to run more boost with that setup. 9-11lbs will move nicely in that car....

good luck

Blaze

hmm...i'm guessing u mean internally gated. but that's fine. i'm also gonna assume that you're going with a log manifold. your setup will be cool for a street setup. it'll be fun to drive. just get everything u need and get a tune as everyone would say.

fmu or safc, either will work ok. but don't use both together. currently, i'm running a fmu and my cousin is running a vafc hack for each of our setups. each runs fine and well. it's been about 4 or 5 months now. so just double check everything before u go in real deep. good luck
