Are you upgrading your fuel pressure also?
It should be plug and play...
But there are difference type of injectors that might need a resistor box..

 

i have checked into that already i have the right injectors high imedance and i was told that the only thing ill have to upgrade will be the fuel pump everything esle can stay stock like the rail and the regulator im only gunna run 15lbs any way

 

just curious, not too related but what do you have done to your car to warrant the upgrade in injectors?

 

well my car is a 93 civic ex D16z6 turbo is a t3 t4 hybird i have complete MSD setup VAFC-2 lightend flywheel and stage 2 clutch and now to be putting in 550cc injector and running 15lbs boost i have built the bottow end rods pistons and crank the head is stock and i think thats all to the motor i think!

 

I can't believe you're going to run 15lbs unsleved.

 

sounds like it would be some fun. Good deal man, and good luck.

 

i was told by a few guys on this site that i could run 15lbs. unsleeved in not whats the most you guys recomend???

 

Horsepower breaks sleeves not boost.

Its all in the tune. A good tuner can squeeze a lil more. I would say 10psi.

8 daily, 10-12 track maybe .... other people have other opinions, but I bank on the side of safety unless you have a rather mild and bulletproof tune.

 

if you're serious about making power and being safe, ditch that vafc and get a real tuning device.

 

not to jack the thread or anything, i'm just reading and learning, and instead of opening a new thread to ask what maybe be a simple question i'll ask here.

By sleeving, you just mean replacing the sleeves? or does the d16 use a parent block where you recomend boring and sleeving?

cut the old sleeves out. replace with new ductile iron sleeves.

 

thanks for clearning that up for me. One more question, when i turbo i plan to use a smaller turbo, KO3 from VW's 01-05 1.8T's. Would a smaller turbo then allow for higher boost on stock sleeves?
