dumb turbo questions
so this summer im putting a t3/t04e kit on my car
4g jdm h22a
heres what the kit comes with...
PeakBoost Stainless Steel equal length exhaust manifold made of 304L 8 gauge stainless, Garrett T3/TO4E turbocharger, Tial 38mm wastegate, PWR 24x6x3.5 Intercooler (2.5" inlet and outlet), Tial blow off valve, 12inch "Slimline" pusher radiator fan, Vortech FMU, Fully TIG welded complete 3 peice 2.5" charge piping, 3inch downpipe with stainless flex section and wastegate dumptube. Stainless oil feed (-4) and oil drain (-10) lines. Weldless oil drain line. All necessary couplings Strong T-Bolt hose clamps. All necessary gaskets
so my questions are...
-what injectors should i use
-what cams will work best, 12psi at max boost (im doing full valve train)
-what ignition upgrades should i consider
-anything else that this kit is missing?
i think thats all i need to know
thanks in advance

Get rid of the FMU and get, at the very least, Hondata S200B...
If you dont plan on going over 12 PSI than get a set of 550's, some are going to say 440 but I like larger injectors running at a low duty cycle rather than having something running at 70%+
Id also recomend putting about $5K in the bank so you have something to fall back on when the ring lands crumble and a rebuild becomes necessary

since its a H22 you should keep the boost low. 7-8 is good. if you run 12psi then your motor is going blow up sooner. after you get it sleeved and get pistons and rods then turn the boost up.

Yeah, I've got my bottom-end rebuild in progress before I put mine on- there are those who will say you can safely boost up to 12psi without worrying about beefing up the pistons and rods and/or sleeving the block, but I wouldn't recommend it. A buddy of mine put on the same kit (Turbonetics Dragger, I'm assuming?), and ended up blowing his engine.

well 12psi is only going to when i need it. ill have an EBC and only be running about 6 on a daily basis.
and as far as over boosting it...
the shop i frequent in town specializes in honda/acura. one of the techs there told me he had an accord with jdm h22 and ran 12psi constant for like 30k miles or some **** and sold it running perfect, o yeah he was running all stock internals. anywho he told me the h22 can handle 12 at max, he didnt recomend it but deffinatly trusted in it. as far as how much boost im going with what he said. thats no the issue here.
-innovation: thanks man that helped out alot.
