before boosting

I plan to turbo my before the 7th, but I want to save time doing it, so I want to know if I can hook up the vafc, 450cc's and 255lph, and drive normal before I put the turbo on?

Re:before boosting

do the fuel pump and afc but i would hold off on the injectors. they only take a few minutes to install if you already have the seals modified.

Yeah, fuel pump and AFC but definatly not the 450's yet unless you already have turbo on. Also, just leave the AFC at zero settings so they dont throw anything off.

Uhm, actually, if you want to install the injectors, you can. It's not a big deal.

You'll just end up setting your MAP sensor cut straight across the board. Like, say your A/F gauge (which you need better have also!

) says you're stoich., set it for the low and high map.

A starting point would be -38%..

Re:before boosting

I am having problem setting the vafc to a good setting, while stock I throw a cel, when I peel off. and sometimes idle problems. am I going to need my missing link? I have one also.

Re:before boosting

Your CEL may be related to the AFC install, as a 450cc injector install will not throw a code provided all injectors are functioning properly.

Check your wiring, and make sure that you have the correct settings in the AFC. Again, set your base at -38% across narrow and wide band.
