Hard LICP?

[pwayzjellyroll]

I've been looking around the forums and vendors for a hard LICP for a 1990. The only ones i saw for 1g was 91-94. Is it even worth trying to get a hard one? Is there anyone that makes one? Or do I have to make my own. Any info is appreciated.

If you plan on going with FMIC, I would just wait until then.

I don't think I have real big plans of upgrading to one. I'm not planning on running more then 15lbs on my 14b. So I didn't think it was a feasible upgrade, unless you think otherwise.

a fmic is always nice to have i wish i had one with my 14b.. the cooler the air the less chance of you having pre det.. so i would invest in one even if your just running 15psi

You can still easily heatsoak the side mount with the 14b on back to back pulls in a hot summer day, not to mention with a logger, you should be able to safely up the boost to about 17ish psi with a re-wired stock pump.

re-wire that stock pump and any 2.5" aluminum piping will do the trick and take it to a muffler shop and get it bent. Search for supra side mount and meth injection. Devil's own has a package on sale right now pretty cheap. These few things will help you acheive your goals.

I would pick up a smaller fmic, you will be happy with it.

Hmm, I have a logger just need to finish making my cable. I think I may look into a FMIC now that I read what you said. Are there any negative effects to rewiring my fuel pump before upping the boost? If not it'd be something I'm willing to do. A little at a time they say.

(P.S. Bruce, you've been an amazing help the entire time I had my car, I appreciate it)

Thanks to everyone else as well.

Not at all, what it does is preventing voltage drop at higher boost and rpm which will decrease the flow rate of the pump.

No problem.

I was looking into the SSAC FMIC but the only thing I am weary about with a FMIC is cutting the cross beam. Plus will I be able to keep my AC/PS? It's hard to tell from so many threads around here. Some say yes, others say no. I basically am just looking for something that I can bolt up without to much cutting. I didn't really want to spend more then 400 but less is good for me to.
