the FMU and fuel pump looks really really ghay to me. I'd recommend the use of a VAFC hack, bigger injectors, and replacement pump. this kit uses an FMU, stock injectors, and aux pump.... all things that are questionable. also... no instrumentation like EGT probe and boost gauge and if you stick with the FMU, i'd get an elec fuel press gauge.

Yea just get 450's and a vafc, pull the timing back 3 degrees at the dist. and run as much boost as the stock map sensor will let you.

ick i would run vafc hack if you dont have to.
id run walbro pump, bigger injectors and run uberdata(or chrome) if you want to save money

first off, thanks for all the replies guys

How much MORE would i be spending on these extras? and what WHP can i expect to get out of it??

If its gona be over 5k, ill just take the car to joe at altech. ive talked him (dunno what the post is about altech being bad, i/ my dad have been going there for 4+ yrs and never had a problem, he wont bs, he takes the time to explain things... unlinke splitfire... lol, lets just say my engine is spose to be a b16a2, and its an a1) andyway back on track, he said for 5k hed make a kit, intal it and tune it to about 230 - 240WHP.

so what would i be better off doing? if im going to be gettin the same hp and only saving 500 or so, then the hassel of getting the ebay kit wont be worth it.

thx

(keep in mind, i cant install the kit, so theres another cost id have)

B16 turbo can make over 250 whp easily...

you're looking at under $700 for the extra fuel.

EM1Turbo how the hell can you recommend Uberdata to someone who obviously doesnt know the first thing about ecus... uber is for the DIY
