Default suggestions on ls turbo setup plz....

Im about to turbo my ls hatch next week, i think i have everything i need to have a good an safe setup... im only boosting 7psi's. I have garret t3 turbo kit (intercooler, pipe, wastegate, bov, etc) stage 2 skunk cams an cam gears, retainers, valve springs, 440 aem injectors and a s300 hondata ecu. If im missing parts plz reply an let me know... can i keep my stock fuel pump an be good? wat about fuel regulator? is it a need? This is a daily driven car. Thanks for any help...

spend the money on 255 walburo you don't want to lose it all to a 85 dollar part my fist civic with a ls would run out of gas on turbo make sure to gap you're plugs at 0.35 - 0.50 no less no more and pay to get a good tune or it will not last

yea get that 255lph walburo

your going to need a tune ASAP once u get it all together...a good wideband would be something you should pick up before you just slap everything together and start boosting around town.......and no an autometer A/F gauge is not a wideband

Here's a suggestion...

Check the Forced Induction forum. There's a Turbo LS thread with over 100+ pages of information and various setups. If you know where to look (FI Forum), you'll find more than enough info...
