Default Pre Turbo Apps?

Hey, ive just got a few quick questions. I just got a 94 ex with an auto tranny (44K miles for 2,000$ was my grandmas lol) and im def goin to turbo it, but since its auto im only going to run 6 PSI. so here we go with the questions.

1) Should i get the greddy turbo kit, for 1300, or should i get this one http://www.ssautochrome.com/level.itml/icOid/1291

2) Im goin to get a new fuel pump, most likely a Wal 255, and im goin to replace the plugs too, but do i need new injectors? Or can i run 6 PSI with the stock ones?

3) I kno i should post this in the exhaust section BUT, whats a good exhaust to get? I dont want anything loud, just something that will work with the turbo. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks. http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/795035

Oh by the way, im figurin ill spend up to 2K on the turbo (500$ for a tune and appx 1500 for the turbo kit itself)

if you can afford the Greddy kit then definately go with that. As for a fuel pump... look into a boost-a-pump (made by kenne bell). It might save you some money and its very popular for turbo/supercharger applications. With your setup im not positive if you will need larger injectors or not. Exhaust... find one atleast 2 1/4" in diameter, you could even go as large as 3" if you want, for max performance. I'd stay away from anything out side of that range.

Get the Greddy kit. You won't need injectors or a fuel pump on your stock internals (it comes with a FMU, but you don't need any other new hardware for the boost levels you'll be running). As for plugs, they are always a good idea, and are fairly important when running FI.

To tell all...we are putting on one of those ssautochrome D16 turbos now on a stock Z6.I will get picks as soon as they finish. If you order from them be sure to request a complete kit(I can not stress this enough)....It looks good the welds seem fine on the 2nd gen manifold, does have brackets and the turbo is frickin huge!!! Just be sure if you are supposed to get it with the kit request it turn around for us on several pieces was 24hrs fedex. some pices are not included boost reg,intercooler couplers(a bitch to find), a decent bolt selection(however we have enough t-clamps and 2" silicone couplers to start a wholesale buisness)

thats whats nice about the greddy kit......its 1300 without the intercooler and its a small 15G turbo.......itll give me the 6 PSI no problem and wont take a long time to spool up. The greddy kit also comes with EVERYTHING u need.....from the blow off to the fuel manage system.
