Default Fuel management

When using FMU for turbo, do you need a fuel pump?

stock pump will do you just fine....no need to worrie about it untill you start pushing more boost...9-15 psi is when you should start worring about more fule.

I would not trust the stock fuel pump in a force induction setup myself. Fuel pumps are inexpensive and a piece of cake to install.

Purcahse atleast a 190 liter per hour in-tank fuel pump. YOu'll thank yourself later down the road. You want your FI setup to run a little on the rich side anyways. No lean mixtures at all. That is a no-no.

How much power do you think you're going to make at 4.5 psi? That matters more than the actual amount of boost you're putting through the engine.
