Default fmu&injectors

heres another question, i see people use fmus. some of them tell you they are using larger injectors others dont. so, if use an fmu, will i have to use larger injectors or can i run the stock ones?

fmus are retarded out-dated fuel management systems. We have the technology to properly chip an ecu and do it the right way. Stay away from fmus. BTW what are you turboing?

anytime you turbo, you need more fuel. hence you need a way to get the fuel. The most common way is bigger injectors. The edelbrock kit used to include an intake manifold with ports for an extra set of injectors. And yea, FMUs are the gay. pay 140$ or whatever it is for a chipped ECU with crome or uberdata or something

just so the OP knows you should NOT just buy a chipped ecu and run boost off of it. It comes with a basemap to get you to a tuner for it to be properly tuned by a professional.

www.phearable.net

since you're already at OBD1 get a socketed/chipped p28 from phearable and get it tuned, soooo much better than an FMU.

And cheap injectors that will support a low-level boost project at DSM blue-top 450cc injectors, with a resistor box they can be had for well under $100
