    Default Just ordered a complete T3/T04E kit.

    I planned on running 440 Injectors and a regulator for now.

    What I didnt know was whether I want Saturated, or Peak and Hold.

    Also, what spark plugs you reccomend as well. I also am installing an MSD Coil and Cap.

    Thanks.

    This in a 90 CRX with a B16 in it. Thanks.

    Precision injectors suck IMO. I've seen people complain about those not flowing as much as they are ment to, so it may be hit or miss thing ... Before somebody starts arguing I'll say that this is just IMO (that they suck)

    when I ordered my RCs, those came flow tested and were withing 1% of the nominal. (actually about 0.5% withing each other). I also paid about 300 shipped, but it was well worth it since I haven't had a single problem with them.

    They come with flow sheets, and ive used them on multiple builds from 200whp NA hondas to 800whp EVOs with ZERO PROBLEMS.

    They are just as good as RC, RC has just been around longer.

    Whats a reccomended fuel pump? WIll my oem suffice for now?

    Also, I ended up getting 370s. I heard that a stock ECU wouldn't support those and bigger very well. However, I'm running a spoon ECU. I was told to piggy back the system, however, I was also told that would severely diminish the value to the ecu, to the car and price wise. I would think the spoon would be fine with the bigger injectors. I'm also only runnig 7psi on stock compression for now. Until I have a little more cash saved for dropped compression, then i'll up the boost.

    Also, I'm looking for a lower priced but good say 10:1 Fuel pressure regulator as well.

    way off man. you just wasted your money.

    Ditch the SPOON ecu, go with a CROME ecu mapped for 450cc injectors.

    youll need 450cc for 7psi, 370s aint gonna cut it with a spoon ecu.

    Walbro fuel pump too, OEM isnt up to the task

    The car actually came with the spoon. At this point, I dont have the cash to buy a new ECU.

    I ordered a Walbro 255 last night. The most I can do really is ebay, sell out right, or trade off my spoon. Dammit! lol

    reps for the help

    Coming from a Motocross backround the heat range on the plugs doesnt make a difference like most would think. Say on my dirtbike, which comes factory with an NGK CR8E plug. I switch to a CR7E plug. All that does is means that the plugs doesn't dissipate heat as fast as the 8. Meaning it stays hotter longer. ONLY the plug, nothing else.

    Same thing with a 2 stroke engine. Your basic 2 stroke plug is a B8ES Lots of people run a 9 but it makes no difference. In how the bike runs.

    I did plan on new plugs, I ordered a seperate coil and cap from MSD, if its that important that I run a cooler heat range plug, then I will buy them. As of right now, the same heat range plugs will be going in the car as whats in it now.

    well welcome to cars and the heat range matters. and i posted in your other thread, a t4 turbo wont fit a t3 manifold. and btw a t4 turbo on a stock motor at 7psi wont do ****. you have a ton of reading to do

    for injectors...just do what you want brand wise...i would get atleast 450's if not 550's. i have had rc injectors numerous times with no probs..now i have precision 1000cc. they are all good. no one stays in business for making crappy products. a crome p28 will do you fine and get tuned dont waste your time on fmu's and such. as for plugs i always used ngk bkr7e's i think the part number is 6097. just listen to batlground as he is not gonna steer you wrong

    How do you assume I bought ****?? The only things I've bought, were a 12:1 regulator, A boost Guage, Air Fuel guage, The turbo kit, a Catch Can, a Gredding timing belt b/c it's due anyways, Rods, Bearings, Crank bearings, Complete gasket and seal kit, MSD Cap and Ex. Coil, Adjustable Cam Gears, A timer, boost controller,l and Injectors.

    A friend of mine built his car at a shop local to his house, they did all the tuning and what not at a resonable price, and will be helping me as well.

    x2 Sounds like you need to do some research. Its a little more complex than you seem to be making it.

    I'm not going to hate on you for buying what you bought. No, it's not what some people would have spent their money on, but it's still bringing you closer to joining the boosted crowd. I'm not sure how long your build will last if you go down that road, but nonetheless....

    Just make sure you do extensive research on what you need. Research every part before you buy it and see what people say about it from personal experience.

    Good luck and I hope it all works out for you.

    look man like the guy before me said im not going to hate on you but you do need to slow your role and listen to a few of these guys that have done this sh!t before and you have wasted your money on a few things your 370 or whatever the number was you need atleaste 450 or higher and forget about all the piggy back b/s not needed make sure you spend money on a name brand turbo other wise your not going to make it long enough to actually enjoy it and plugs defiantly make a huge difference i would go 2 steps colder and close the gap a lil im not sure exactly how much im sure some one on here can help on that one other thing you said something about you bought rods but were going to weight on pistons i believe you probably should weight till you got the money for them also i wouldn't break down the whole motor just to put rods in its going to cost you more in the end anyway just my opinion

    LOL...technically, you just said you were told to gap your plugs to just over a 1/4 inch :-)

    What you meant to say was .028 in. - .032 in. which is absolutely correct.

    http://www.superchargersonline.com/p...er=AEM-30-4100 Theres the guage I got.

    Its the Garrett T3/T4 and Model is T04E.
    Exhaust AR .63
    Intake AR .50


    Tell me exactly what else I need, I have the Turbo, Mani, Wastegate, Blowoff, Boost Controller, Down pipe, Piping, FMIC....Thats what came with the kit.

    I also ordered the 370's, I can send them back.

    The Greddy Timing belt, I'm due, and i'm trying to boost, its worth the money.

    Adjustable cam gears, I'm sure those will make tuning easier in the end, or are necessary?

    the A/F guage.

    Boost Guage.

    The Regulator.

    255 Walbro.

    Other items as well, i'm not sure i'd have to check the boxes.

    Your compressor is a little small. I would look for something with a .63/.60 compressor and exhaust.

    That gauge will work fine.

    The injectors depend on your power goals, but I can guarantee that 370's are too small.

    The cam gears are not necessary at all.

    You keep saying a regulator...Are you talking about a fuel pressure regulator or an FMU? If you are referring to an FPR, that's fine, you need that, along with a fuel pressure gauge (nothing fancy, just something for under the hood to set fuel pressure). If you are referring to an FMU, that is wrong in so many ways, but you can research why.

    The Walbro 255 is right.

    You also need oil feed/return lines and hardware for both.

    You NEED colder plugs...I use NKG 3330, which I BELIEVE are BCPR7ES.

    And after all this, you need some management...hondata, chrome, neptune, AEM, or something. I highly recommend Hondata.

    I'll go with the colder plugs, it just doesnt read right to me, but obviously you have more experience than I do.

    By limited budget, i'm already at about 2.5k with everything. I planned on going with an ECU from Battlegrounds.

    I meant Fuel Pressure Regulator. I also planned on going and picking up a water pump shortly before I do the install.

    The install I can do all on my own. With out issue...well almost. My box got wet, so all my directions got ruined. You'd have thought they'd put them in a plastic bag but they didnt. Do you or anybody else know where I can find an install diagram, or directions?

    I know ALL the bolt on stuff, Except the wastegate, I have no idea how that worked, it came with teh valve seat, and 2 like..spacers. I assume that the spacers are for the waste gate exhaust, but i'm not sure on that. Plus, I dont know how the waste gate bolts to the mani exactly. as in, does one of those spacer have to go in there, or does it bolt directly to it, with the valve seat of course.

    Thanks. There was more, but I got lost lol

    If you are changing your timing belt, you should also change your water pump, tensioner, and your spring.

    You also need an exhaust for this project, unless you are going to be running an open down pipe.

    A lot of people will say that your Honda ignition system will be fine, I disagree and believe that for over 300whp or so, you should upgrade the ignition system.

    Oh, and it also came with the oil feed line, and fitting that'll accept the Sensor, feed line, and an eventual oil pressure guage.


    ALso, I wanted to ask if there was a way I could get this thing installed, and drive it with very little to no tuning. ONLY about 2 hours from my house where the complete tuning will be done. Like, Could I just not plumb it into the intake just to get it where its going, as long as I have the oil lines installed, and the injectors not installed until tuned.

    Thanks
