Get a Warlboro 255LPH Fuel Pump. And thats just the Begining. You needs TON'S of stuff. Did you buy the Full kit? Or just the Turbo,Manifold and Piping? Are you going to Intercool it?Did you get Bigger Injector's? No one can really Recomend anything untill you tell us what you already have.

I know what i need to run a basic turbo setup. I'm purchasing everything new. And yes it's going to a single cam. I'm sticking this into my d15 non-vtec engine. I'm also getting an APEX SAFCII to manage my fuel delivery tunning/needs. I'm also getting a pressure regulator for my fuel rail. I might be taking the nozzle jet filters off to release a little more fuel into the cylinders. I think it frees up like 20% of extra fuel plus the pressure regulator to increase the fuel needs. I just really need to know if it's alright to run this set-up on stock internals. AND NO IM NOT RUNNING MORE THAN 7-8PSI OF BOOST..... I KNOW THAT'S GOING TO KILL MY ****** ENGINE "STEVEZ"

And as for the front mounted intercooler i didn't know if I wanted a big or small one. Because I might be building the engine up to handle a lot more boost later down the road and might need a bigger front mounted intercooler. If the lag is that noticable i might just get a smaller one for now. Sorry for the lame info about my set-up and info on what im doing but i was busy trying to figure out where to get a new APEX SAFCII at a good price. And was a little excited and wanted to let you guys know lol.... Anyways let me know if I'm alright with the set-up so far....

Your stock fuel pump and FPR will be fine for your application.

D turbo's are only good If you do It yourself and you can source the Part's at decent Prices. And don't bother building it up internally. Its a waste of Time. Why build your lame assed D motor when you can have 300WHP on B16 with stock Internal's!!
Even a B18A/B boosted has much more potential than any Boosted D. But since you've already blown your money you might as well buy your SAFC and just pay a shop to install it and Finnish it up for you. Then when its all Done install the Biggest wing you can, Slap a Type-R sticker on the side and make sure EVERYONE hear's your blow-off valve. Soon you'll be living your life 14 second's at a time.

And with that Built D you get Poor Gearing, Garbage Tranny,Unequal length driveshaft's and a head that flow's less. But hey. To each is his own. People will alway's try to be different.I guess some people think its fun to try and prove they can be better/faster with Inferior ****. Thats Great, Were proud of you determined folks.

Hold on Hold on guys damn you people are ***** animals lol. I know it might not be worth putting it into a D15 engine. But for now it's ok because if later down the road I WANT more power I'll just drop in the b16 and already have the turbo and just need to buy a new header. But hey some people just don't have the money and time to do b16 swap, turbo, and all that labor to put it in... But like you guys say to each there own.... I'm not that of an HP freak and need that much to satisfy me. It'll be a nice addition to the car.. Hey if I'll get a clean 200-225whp or even just 200-225 hp ill it'll be fine with me lol.... I'll just drop in 100hp wet shot lol and blow it to hell and drop in a b16 haha....

well even though you only plan on boostin 8 psi, a SAFC is a poor choice for engine management. They are better at taking fuel away then adding fuel. Just save your money and get your ecu chipped to run uberdata, trust me you will thank me later. And if/when you decide to go with a b-series you can just burn another .bin to your chip and be laughing.
