I GOT PWNED!........ 2 times!!!

[Turbo Monk3y]

well to make a long story short, back in my t25 days which was only 1 month ago i raced my friends 240sx (with the sr20DET silvia engine) i was boosting 15 lbs and beat him by 3.5 car lengths. this is becuase he was only running 8 lbs of boost and was running that engine on his NON turbo 240sx stock exhaust plus crappy tires.. well last night we went at it again only this time I have my 16G installed with my MBC set at 13/14 lbs of boost. my friend now had 3" exhaust system his MBC was set at 12/14 lbs of boost on his stock NISSAN t25 turbo, plus he had hard intercooler piping. we raced 4 times and i lost all 4 times by 3.5 lengths the same amount i beat him by.. the 2nd whooping the same night was by this guys NEON srt4!! stock he only had 160 miles on it running stock boost. WE raced 3 times and all 3 times i LOST by half a car lenth...NOW before i begin MY car has had its tune up, everything is running peachy. I have around 350 dollars to spend and i was thinking about going fuel tuning just so i could turn up my boost to the 16g's power band (around 16-19 psi). thinking about getting a fuel pump and injectors. the problem i have is should i just spend it on hard upper and lower intercooler piping cuz i have my current set up badly jimmie rigged it goes from 3" areas to 1.25" a couple times from my turbo to throttle body. plus i still have the restrictive plastic UICP. im just in Hole and i cant decide if i should go UICP/LICP or FUEL mods or Exhaust.... IF you guys have read this far please HELP me decide wat is the best way to go? im confused. i just want to beat the SRT-4 and my friends 240sx/silvia please help

why do you have 16g if you only boost at 14 psi?

 

[GSX4LIFE]

There is no easy answere to this. Fuel pump and inejctors are an absolute, to turn up the boost. But without a better uicp and bov, the boost will be lost. So, really, you need both, to take full advantage of the B16G.

I would say pipeing beouse if you do the other things you will not be geting the potental of the (half of keyboards keys are still not working) things (fuel and exhaust) will still hae a big bottle nek that being your intake er sob i going to go get new (rather one of 50) keyboards now

Tough choice. You should get the upper pipe and BOV first, then exhaust, then the fuel pump. Or if funds are limited, get the fuel pump before the exhaust. That should be good enough to hold 15 psi.

if your straped for cash you can mod your stock BOV as well...
