Default Fuel Managment...

Im on a budget what would you use, and which is better?
AEM FIC
Dezod's PCS XFC
Greddy Emange blue

if i had more $$ i would get the AEM EMS too much $$ for little boost

also im goin to run a t-25 with rc 440's
would i have to run a fuel return line? and get a fuel pressure reg?
i got arp's so im goin to boost like 8-10psi
anything else i need kno?
thx

Make sure you're not running your stock intake manifold if you plan on boosting above 4-5psi.

dumbest advice ever.

@ OP, RSX-S 310cc injectors will work with a t25 with room. You can stay returnless and wouldnt need a fuel pressure reg. Just RSX-S injectors (not rsx) and a fuel management, talk to local tuners see which ones they prefer PCS isnt known that widely so most dont tune, same with AEM, and emanage is atleast known and similiar to AEM EMS i hear from tuners.

If the car is DD, and you value keeping it running 7 days a week year round boost 8psi or under but use the ARP Headstuds i had a friend lift his head @10psi with a t25

^^^ it shouldnt lift if its torqued down right and the motor is tuned. the head lifts when the motor detonates.

with 440s you're probably not going to have the greatest control with anything that tries an injector skew. you can run RSX 310s up to about 8psi. Beyond that, your bet is probably go pick up a Kpro.

hit the search button, read around, all this stuff is covered.

boost and tight budget with this car do not work well.

yea i guess boost and a tight budget dont work on this car
i had a 96 hatch that i parted out, i wish d17 and d16 parts were interchangable
i had it tuned for 10psi with hondata and the tuner never told me about
arps, i should have researched more before tuning ended up blowin the HG
due to head lift.

also i hear about crackin the plastic intake manifold if you go over 5 psi
is this true or what??

yea i guess i'll research more on the fuel managment i got till next spring anyway
thx
