injector size depends on your goals. But a set of 750 should work well for you. You will need something to control them...like DSM Link, or maft and safc. You also need to get an adjustable fpr. That 255 pump is overrunning your stock fpr.

I think you need to do alot more reading.

isnt the pte a downpard facingturbo?..

your SMIC is going to heatsoak very fast.

get 750s is good for a afc tune..youve got alot of money to spend.

 

[DSMnOOb00]

okay so I should get getting a FMIC next then some 750cc? what should Use to control them? I hear DSMlink is the way to go, i have read a bit on it, But I dont want to send out my chip for get the socket serivce, anything a bit easyier to do?

 

[emitsu97]

DSMLink requires a 95 EPROM ECU so you're actually going to need to find one of those (got mine on ebay) and send that in for socket and chip.

 

[DSMnOOb00]

Cool, anywhere else where I can find a 95 EPROM ECU thats not ebay?
OKay so im going to get a set of NEW RC 750cc injectors for about 350 on ebay, also on the way is a used injen intake.... Now to avoid Heat soak, where can I find a good FMIC? I see one on ebay for about 800? is that fair for a good intercooler? anything cheaper? I dont want to remove my bumper reinforcement....

I hear DSMlink is fairly easy to work with, but iv never tuned anything in mylife so im hoping this will work well for me and my needs...

Thanks guys!

yeah, i was a noob to tuning with dsmlink, now i can consider my self pretty good.

my intercooler is a generic one with custom made pipes to fit my car, grand total of 460. 2.5" pipes and a big IC isnt bad, with a blow off valve flange. But yes, you CAN run your turbo on the sidemount, but i wouldnt expecct great things from it.

remove your front bumper brace, its only good to like 10 mph anyways...plus its heavy.

750s are a good choice

look in the clasifieds for a 95 eprom. they run about 200

 

[RockSolidGST]

800 for a used one is pretty expensive. Try looking at The Classified's for some parts Second hand it will save you a lot of money. Your going to need a Exhaust , Downpipe , and Catback of some kind. Take a look at my mod list. Its shows pretty much everything youll need.

Get the SSAC / XS Auto FMIC kit for the 2g. Its $295-310 SHIPPED. Comes with upper and lower ic pipes for turbos such as PTE 50, I know because I have the very same turbo and FMIC.

all of that for $295-310 shipped.

It's very hard to beat for the price.

EDIT, the piping is 2.5" diameter, and perhaps the shortest route possible, all positives.

 

[theSicKness]

id go with a boost guage first..

here is a list of what i would do
data logger or dsmlink.
exhuast
intake
FMIC
750's or bigger
255 w/ afpr
boost controller
ect ect...


read up on the tech/DYI section

Hope it helps

I agree with most everything posted so far, but especially with ^^Jesse^^.

That is the order I would follow if I were doing the build.

 

[JohnCIV_Talon]

Does that front mount connect to a 16g? How much cutting did you have to do.

What kind of car did your friend has, if it was a 2g DSM, ask him to tell you how he did the pipes, if not, we know as much as you, you have to MAKE IT FIT your setup.

 

[2G-beast]

yes for sure get an exhaust, fmic, and injectors, also you need like a safc or dsmlink or datalogger.

 

[DSMnOOb00]

I am in the process of getting the exhaust installed, but im running in to unexpected issues... (this is my first time, so go slow and be gental) I was going to install my used apexi exhaust today, but my downpipe wont bolt up to my 3inch pipes... but I also noticed that the 02 houseing is 2.5 inches, will I need to get a new houseing?
