Fuel question?

[Spaniel1287]

Well I am in the early stages of modding my 95 Talon FWD. Right now i have:

Boost Gauge
Intake
UICP
1g BOV
MBC

My next move is obviously to get my o2 housing dumped and get a full 3" exhaust starting with the downpipe and going on all the way back.

My question was this.... I am planning on gettin a BIG T28 turbo upgrade. Before I do that I need to get my fuel done. I need the best advice. I was thinking about getting 550cc injectors and then getting a walbro 190lph fuel pump. Is that the only 2 mods I would need to be able to get a bolt on T28 turbo? Thanks for the advice.

For your fuel setup you'll also need a fuel management system such as gm maft, safc, dsmlink, etc. Not sure if 550cc injectors are enough to fully max out the big t28. You might want to go upgrade to around 650cc. With the 190lph fuel pump you most likely won't need a afpr. You will definitely need an afpr if you decide to get a 255lph pump. Are you planning to get a fmic in the future?

I dunno If i will have enough money to get a FMIC. I know that it would help a shit load. I aint looking to get into teh 11's or 10's or shit like that . 13's are def good for me and if i hit a 12.9 id be like wow. But I mean maybe i could upgrade my sidemount for pretty cheap or something I dont know. But if i got a Big T28 would I want it to be ported and polished and also would 650cc injectors be the best to get?

Yea I would def get 650's to take advantage of that turbo. I my self are just a tiny bit ahead (I have exhaust) so now i buying DSMlink, 255lph pump, 750's, SBR cast mani, SBR FMIC, and a big 16g. So basically I'm going the same route but with the best supporting mods (hinting at a 1999 GSX to run a big 60-1 in my future).

 

[Spaniel1287]

Yea I know what you mean. I def aint got the money to be putting out that. I am just taking it slow and part by part. Also I was going to ask. RIght now i have a dual gauge pod pillar with just a boost gauge. What other gauge would you recommend me getting?

 

[LA97GST]

EGT all the way and I would hope most everyone else agress. I am no expert tuner but I have been helped out tons by EGT gauges.

 

[Spaniel1287]

Yea thats what i heard too. Good thing their only $140 brand new Ill never buy a used gauge again since the first time i did it got sent to me broken. Oh well learn the hard way. Damn Classified people.

EGt guage is ok but you can't rely on it. I have the AGP T-28, I think its a big one. Anyways its rated up to 360 hp. I have a set of 550's w/ a 190lph pump and a safc/pocketlogger combo for control. It runs great and I have not had a problem running out of fuel. On the contrary, I seem to be having a problem with a constant rich condition.

If I had to do it again and I had an eprom ecu, I would try and save up for dsmlink instead of a pocketlogger. But considering I had neither money or the ecu I went with the setup I have now.

 

[LA97GST]

Yea Span did your car come with the EPROM ECU??? It sure would be a waste to let that ecu not be used.... wanna trade? haha with added money of course because I can't find too many good EPROM's around.

 

[Spaniel1287]

I do not know what an EPROM is. How would I know if my car came with one?

 

[LA97GST]

Look on the cover of your ECU and if it is EPROM there will be a large "E" under the serial number. Only 95's came with it.

My next move is obviously to get my o2 housing dumped

How is this obvious? What are you expecting out of a o2 dump?

haha take it easy he was just saying that obviously his next move should be to dunp O2 (get O2 housing better put) and free up flow with 3incher exhaust.

Just making sure he wasn't misled into thinking dumping will net anything more than the noise itself. As for opening up the exhaust, a tubular o2 that recirculates or a well ported 2G/EVOIII stock o2 will do the job just as well without dumping.
