    Default Will i need this???

    The TSI Turbo Kit Comes standard with TSI's proprietary fuel system, which includes a TSI interface block with 2 additional fuel injectors and controller unit (black box). The controller unit is adjustable, displays boost pressure, and has an integrated turbo timer. The settings are all pre-programmed to work right out of the box.

    I can have this removed from the kit for $400.... I can run on stock injectors for the time being correct???

    Like i said to Rob over the phone I am just trying to get the car boosted and running for Tunerfest. After tunerfest I will upgrade the Fuel Management and EMS. I also plan on running a Tuned Stock ECU until Tunerfest is over.

    If i can get away without having TSIs fuel system that would be great... please let me know! thank you!!

    Cast manifold that comes preassembled on Garrett turbo.

    Stainless steel braided water lines for turbo cooling.

A good dyno tune can still yield some additional horsepower though.
    Rising rate fuel pressure regulator (not included or needed on 7th Gen Civics).
    Heat shield.
    High-performance air intake and filter.
    Oil return hose and oil pan fitting.

    It seems that there fuel system is just like a turbonetics kit, 2 extra injectors that come on when boost is happening. The thing you need to think about is why are you buying all that stuff to get running by tunerfest, and not run at least a somewhat bigger injector. Do you want to spend that money and possibly have issues? Stock injectors will probably make out about 170 ish if i had a guess, and that guess is based on stock fuel pumps going out at around 200.
