and also is 8psi on a stock b16 with just a port and polished head safe? what is a good boost level to put on a b16 and be safe at the same time.

buy SAFC and resell it... buy bigger injectors(450cc+) and get someone with a clue about tuning.

sell that safc and use that money to buy a socketted p28, get a basemap in there and go to a reputable tuner. Neptune is pretty cheap, 600 flat rate, evans tuning.com

no prelude injectors are too small, you need AT LEAST dsm 450cc from a turbo talon. you will also need a resistor box to wire them up corectly

450's are fine, you can get them cheap for like 60 bucks shipped, or go out to a local junkyard and get them off a turbo talon/eclipse

Socketed ECU + bigger injectors + walbro fuel pump + good tuner

I personally use stock injectors at a higher base fuel pressure on my setup (75 BFP, injectors @ 90% DC), but only because I'm waiting till I get my 510cc injectors rebuilt. I run a wideband 24/7 and have been tuning for a while so I can get away with it

chipped ecu is ok as long as it got a socket and the chip aint soldered to the board... i have seen those it sucks...

not to butt in, but how can i determine if I have a p28 ecu? I bought my car already built up and I have reason to believe that it already has this, but how can I check to be sure?
