[Crash429]

Hi I have a 93 fwd tsi that I'm building, I built a 6 bolt an just tryin to get it goin rite now, then build the rest while I can drive it but I have a PTE gt3255 the only fuel mod I have at this Time is a walbro 190 fuel pump, was wondering how much boost cld I run The way it is? The engine is built plenty strong enough to hold basically watever I throw at it but I'm wryin about fuel delivery? An also what wld b a good size injector for this turbo later dwn the road, thanks

Do you have something to tune with? Your profile just says socketed eprom. Do you have a chip burned for it or DSMlink?

What type of fuel are you going to run? E85, or pump?

Check out this great link all you need do is first determine how much hp that turbo can make and how much you wanna make and choose the injectors. Never the less bigger is better in case you wanna go for higher hp later. http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/newbie-forum/393264-x-hp-fuel-injectors.html

Anyone have any idea on how much boost I can run with this set up the way it is? An sorry my ecu is not socketed it's just a EPROM ecu, the guy I bought it off of said it was socketed but it's not it's just a EPROM ecu, my buddy told me no higher than 16 psi but would like some other opinions any info is appreciated, thanks

With that size turbo and those injectors and no tuning it won't even run right and your going to kill your engine rather fast I wouldn't even crank it, sorry man but you need to hold your excitement until you get DSMLink and bigger injectors!

If it stock and have no logging device then the lower the better so it's safer and you don't blow it up. You can say any number you want 10,12,16 or whatever but you never know if it is really safe without seeing a log.

Ok thanks for the info greatly appreciated I havnt even started the car yet, still have to get a few odd and ends before its goin, this is my 1st turbo dsm build, when I bought the car it was blown an in pieces I have a lot of time and money into her so I'm glad I got this info before I ended up runnin it an throwin all that away , what size an brand of injectors would you reccomend? And I've never tuned a car is it pretty easy for a beginner in tuning to figure out?

I think I'm gonna hold off runnin it, till I get bigger injectors and link just to b safe, like I said I got a lot of time and money into it and dont want to end up ruinin it because of my own stupidity that could have been prevented, thanks guys

Better safe then sorry I have huge pet peeve and it's not wanting people to blow up there cars. Everyone tries push it a little little more then what they say and I come back as there conscious to be safe and say I don't see the thread when they came back, " I blew my motor"... Anyways bet you can't wait to start the car you got me excited. Here is a great read for tuning info I suggest everyone reads it. http://www.ecmtuning.com/wiki/ecmlink101

Just get link and a wideband first. Set it all up on stock injectors running wastegate pressure and see if you are getting safe AFR's. If you are then great you can DD it until you can afford larger injectors.
