the kit looks decent, but the fuel and timing management

some rc injectors and hondata/crome/neptune is your best bet.

we just did my friends stock b16 with t3/t04e 57 trim .63 a/r garrett with turbojesse ramhorn manifold and it did 306 on a dynapack. ran 11.8 in the quarter trapping 117 in a hatch like yours.

hmm this kit comes with the motec system and 440 or 550 injectors.. no good ?? like I said im new to this side of tuning, so im reading up as much as a i can. Im getting ready to go down to a shop called Tuning Factory Inc http://www.TuningFactoryInc.com to see about a setup done by them so Im just weighing out my options.............


bump for more info

It says in the desciption that its management is pre-programmed. and that they have motec and horiba in house? real motec is not that easy to install.

Just piece somethin together... were in the same boat-- I am in the process of turboing my b16 eg hatch. I put together a kit for just under 2k then am rebuilding my head for some more revs. I have it all mapped out in an excell sheet if you want to see but youll always lose when you get a prefabbed kit...

My only advice with that is be careful about whaich shop you choose toadvise you. Everyone has their own opinion and sometimes I have found that certain shops will bias what you should do on what makes the most money for them. Depending on what your goals are is how you should piece it together.

Youre best bet is to state your goals on the car, outline a budget, and look at other peoples previous setups to get an idea on what the hell is going on. I researched for months before i started putting mine togheter. I knew I wanted to play with only 3k done right with a rebuilt head. The only thing that I cared that was new was the turbo. WIth that in mind I picked the things i needed to get it done....The kits are a little pricey for me but for some people if you have the money its a better option because they are complete and you dont have to worry about things not fitting etc.

and that's the thing, I'd love to do it myself and learn about it, but on the other hand it would be nice to just take it somewhere and have it dyno tuned at the shop and drive it home.. This shop is really good, ive read and talked to alot of people that have dealt with them and they have nothing but good things to say.. As far as my goals, Im looking for a setup to run 8psi and 230-250 hp..... i

1k+ for a street setup? It may be a great base for tuning but I dont think its worth the money if your not going ***** out

You can modify the chip with Uberdata or Crome and be 100% fine if you know of a tuner in your area that specializes in either of those. I'm sure you can find someone, as both of these products are very popular. Maybe ask one of the milfs you're banging if you can talk to her teenaged children about who the kids at high school get to tune their rides

i think you mean 3 bar map sensor and a tune.

depending on the power level you are looking for 650s may be overkill. They are all good parts but if you are putting this together in hopes of building up later you might as well get the supporting mods now to make this tune go the best you can.

Fuel pressure regulator
Boost controller
def go 3" downpipe
3" exhaust
nice guages egt, boost, oil temp, oil pressure, wideband 02
get a decent bov and make sure you i/c piping is flanged for it
vacuum manifold for cleanliness
intake manifold if you dont already have one

--i might not be 100% so others please chime in but thats in my opinion

-E
