missing link. im sure youve heard it spoken about. if not its 55 bucks or so, and if your spending roughly 3k on the setup its not gonna kill the wallet....if it isnt going to be dead already.

dont know what that is...any links?

anyone else?

Acctually knoob since you are a 95 you should not need the missing link or the electronic fuel componets. The 95's don't care if they see boost. I ran 8psi on my star kit for well over a year without a missing link or black box. When you up the boost above 10psi though I would get a Missing Link just to protect the map sensor. Now you will need an EGT guage and an A/F guage won't hurt either, so if you get those just get the apexi TT it does A/F, O2 sensor voltage and times the car all for around $110. Other than that that should be about all you need.

what about engine compression , dont i need to do something about it?

 

[siueclipse]

if you want to do engine compression.. youll have to buy a bottomn end rebuild kit..

also.. change the fmu.. to an sfmu

Yes you would want to check your compression first, however if you already orderd the kit I have a feeling your going to put it on anyway. A compression test will tell you what condition that the engine is in right now which should give you an idea of how long your motor has to live. You only need the SFMU if your going to install larger injectors, so if your going to stay with the stockers for a while then the FMU is fine.

Jeez, it's not like it's a dyno. MOST mechanics will be able to perform one, or they should atleast. Pretty standard for most places really
