14b set up

[thashow2k1]

Hey guys just want to make sure before i start the project, this is my build list of things i have, and i'm just trying to get to like 250whp:

14b turbo (llightly used minor side to side shaft play only)
SRS Catback exhaust 3 inch
Punishment racing fmic for 14b/16g
Aeromotive 340 fp or wally 255 fp
Hallman pro boost controller
Tial 38mm vband wastedgate (already had for 16g so o well)
Punishment Racing o2 housing
Megan Racing Boost gauge
Innovate Wideband gauge
Stock injectors
Stock 7bolt block


Do I have pretty much everything to go with the initial build, this is my first boosted car and I'm trying to enjoy it for maybe a year before i build the head and go bigger with the turbo. Plus I had to do maintenance and stuff....any suggestions would definitely be helpful

You are definently going to want some bigger injectors. You need a tuning device, worthy investment is a dsmlink. If you do not want to spend the cash for that get a safc but you'll regret it in the end. Walbro 255lp will be more then enough, make sure you re wire it.

You'll certainly want bigger injectors. A set of 650s will reach your goals.

An adjustable fuel pressure regulator would be a good idea also.

like said before, you going to want bigger injectors

I'm surprised nobody mentioned this before in this post. I'll step up to the plate. The best change you can make to this list is bigger injectors. That is all.

Reading is good YO.

OP some poly motor mounts would be nice. Also think about a suspension upgrade. A good suspension makes it easier to put power to the wheels. Specially on a FWD.

I would to all those upgrades except the Fuel Pump. Keep the fuel system stock for now especially since its your first turbo car. Do all the other upgrades first drive it for awhile make sure you dont get any surprises. And just read up on tuning options and when you find one you like then do all the fuel stuff at once. Bigger injecters, AFPR, Pump.

Note: Also do the full exhaust add a downpipe to the list.

Holy overkill batman.

I put down 249whp/259wtq with the 14B on bone-stock everything except a pump re-wire, BCS mod and a cat delete at 16psi on 93oct years ago.

 

[thashow2k1]

OK I haven't got the pump yet so I'll wait on all the fuels stuff, and shop.I.return the o2 housing and wastesgate or should I.keep it and externally gate the 14b?

This is why I'm a firm believer that the english language needs a sarcastic font.... Some people don't pick up on it

P.S. you need bigger injectors

 

[99ECLIPSEGSXDSM]

First off if your really only shooting for 250 why would you buy a 255 and a afpr. Just get a 190. Save some money for your bigger injectors you will need. The 190 is rated for 400 hp. So the 255 and afpr is not really needed.

Here... I'll make it easy for you

There are in order for a reason (cause it's proven) so go step by step.

No keep it internally gated its fine. Keep things simple for now, when you feel comfortable with what you have move on to the next upgrade. Dont be in a rush. Do your upgrades make sure everything is running right, then move on to the next upgrade.

I could be mistaken but doesnt he have a 2g\

Yeah I think first off It would be helpful to know if you have a 1g (considering you keep mentioning a 14b) or 2g GST that your username info lists.

Because i'll be quite honest bro... it does NOT take alot to be able to put down 250whp ESP if thats a fwd vs an awd car. The biggest thing you can make sure of for starters is that you don't have ANY.... A N Y... boost leaks, and 2) as mentioned... get an SAFC-II or DSMLink ASAP. Ease of mind and you can tune for some smoother better power off your AEM UEGO (which u better buy). Link would be sweettt investment for yourself v2 or v3, but safc-II's are super easy to learn to tune & under $150

Read my posts, save your time and money.

If you plan on never going for more than 250whp the only mods I would do from there would be:

- Replace the stock fuel line with the banjo fitting between the fuel filter and the rail, adapt it to a -6AN line and rail fitting.

- Install a mechanical boost gauge.

- Install a wide-band oxygen sensor in the downpipe.

- Install a mechanical oil pressure gauge

- Rewire the stock fuel pump.

- Install a voltage gauge between the battery and the ECU, or the battery and the fuel pump.


That's it.

For only 250whp, especially in a 2wd DSM, you don't need a pump or injectors.

You don't need anything to tune with. Just don't turn the boost up too high.
