not at all 5psi isnt all that much. It really does matter what turbo you got tho. Another question? What kind of engine management? What size injectors

then dont boost it. You need to have the proper engine management to run boost. UNLESS you want to blow up you DD

Again, this depends upon the turbo that you're using. 7psi from a GT28R is different than 7psi from a 57 trim. Either way, the injectors have to be tuned to run with any kind of reliability. A standard Walboro 255lph 342 fuel pump can work, but you MUST BE TUNED FIRST before you can run even 1psi of pressure.

Do yourself a favor. Don't install this yet until you have ALL of the components needed to boost this engine, especially if this is your only mode of transportation.

Check this link out. This should answer A LOT of your questions in full detail.

Listen to TheShodan and do some research. You'll be glad you did because it will make your setup that much better and probably save you money along the way.

450cc DSMs require a resistor box with a maximum output of about 250whp or so. Knowing more about the components of your setup. (no PSI numbers please) will help us, help you.

250whp? Im at 300 on stock base fuel pressure. They're close to maxed out.

My god people need to learn basic English. Graddy? Greedy? No, its Greddy.

Greddy and Garrett are two completely different things so it doesnt make sense.

Def need injectors of some type. The black tops are great for basic kits and are usually easy to find. It is also really easy to wire in the resistor box. Also Management is a must. There are a lot of "alternate" management options. I made 300 whp on a bone stock B16 with DSMs and uberdata, but the injectors were MAXED. When I got tuned my FPR was cranked all the way up to keep up with the boost @ 10lbs on a T3/T04e which is not that large of a turbo.

Well for starters Greddy kits come with MHI turbo's not Garrett so there absolutely is some confusion there.

Greddy turbos are Mistu/Garrett hybrids. Mitsu cartridges mated to garrett exhaust housings.

I want to help, but dont even know where to start. It seems like you need to read the FAQ a few times over before doing anything more or buying more mis-matched parts
