in the drag kits or any other kit for the b series, they use a 10:1 ratio fmu. the 12:1 ratio fmu is not enough fuel

If your buddy is eventually going to get bigger injectors and Hondata in a few weeks.... why don't he just hold up on the turbo install until then. That's what I would do if it was my car. Just my opinion....... Oh yeah...by the way. How on earth did you even get a LS turbocharged Del Sol to only run low 14s. I did that on my hatch (LS swap with ACT clutch on 13" donuts)..... all motor stock!!!

that was on 18 inch cp-10s at only 6 psi...and a 2.4 60'...and the del is a heavy bitch...2690 with me and a 1/2 tank (i weigh about 120)

i am trying to convince him to just get the injectors/hondata while he is waiting for a good weekend to put it on, that way he can have it the way he wants it right off the bat....

12:1 provides MORE fuel than 10:1...

And yes you will need ATLEAST a FMU, but why not just wait until the hondata comes in?

thanks for the help guys but im just gonna get the hondata, and the injectors now so i can just have it all done in one install instead of waiting and all that jazz. if anyone has any other advice, maybe on oil pan tapping methods, for a newbie turbo guy, lemme know.
