help with my stock b18b boost project
I picked up a tuner turbo kit from go auto works have it all installed but i am stuck on a few things. This is what i have for my build so far:
B18b Rebuilt
Go auto works tuner kit
avid motor mounts
obd2 harness to convert to obd1
competiton stage 4 clutch
k&N turbo air filter
autometer boost and oil presure guages
picking up walbro pump and 650cc injectors
What else do i need besides getting my ecu chipped and a good tune?
Do i need a fuel managment system, different map sensor, fuel pressure regulator etc?
Any advice would be a great help.

If you plan on running more than 10psi you are going to need a different MAP sensor. I picked up a hondata 4 bar from phearable.net for around 100$. I personally wouldn't run a chipped ECU. Hondata S300 is what I'm using, I dont know if CROME allows for a different map sensor or not. I would also pick up a windeband so you have a good idea of where your A/F is.
should have done thind before installing the turbo
chipped ecu w tune = fuel management. i would suggest getting that taken care of before driving the car.

Thanks for the replys and yes i would like to get a basemap just to make sure everything is in working order but will be trailering the car to the tuner anyways. Also another silly question the tial wastegate i have is a .4 bar is the best way to control my boost by getting a bigger spring and having one set boost setting?
.4 bar = 5.8 psi. if you want to boost more than that you need a bigger spring or a boost controller. the spring pressure is the minimum boost allowable

What about head studs? Are you running the stock bolts or arp's? You really need Arp head studs. 250hp is a perfectly attainable goal on stock internals with that turbo. Should take 8-10psi and a good tune but its very modest.. Just remember if.you go over 10psi you need a newer map sensor as stock won't read above 10-11
my preference is to control boost through hondata's boost by gear feature. essentially an electronic controller built into the tuning software.
alternatively, you could toss on a manual controller so you can quickly/cheaply increase the boost by a few psi. (turbosmart, blox, etc)
Ok thanks for the advice another thing i was wondering is there a need to have a fuel pressure regulator or just run a Walbro pump and injectors that are on there way?
