Default Fuel managment for b16

I know you guys probably hate these questions, but please help
So I'm putting together a turbo kit for a first gen b16. Parts I'm using for sure are a small Starion turbo (14b I think) and side mount intercooler. I'm planning on running 5-7 pounds of boost. I have a msd external coil and wires but I don't want to spend the cash on a BTM. My problem is that I don't know what to use for fuel management. I know the rising rate fmu and fuel pump combo is popular but I don't like the idea of not being able to tune any thing. So I was considering dsm 450cc injectors vafc and an aem fpr which refrences boost at 1:1 ratio. Would this be enough, Any suggestions would be great.
Of course I want to keep the cost down and I don't mind tuning it my self
thanks alot guys.

SEARCH.. but man for 5-7 psi why are u gonna waste all the extra money..just get a FMU and walbro fuel pump.depending on the disk you run on the FMU you will prolly run rich..but running rich doesnt blow motors.

I was running an EFI PMS on my 1st Gen B16 and was very happy with it, controlled the DSM injectors great! Dont know what kind of car you have but mine is for sale...its for an OBD1 car..just an FYI!


But, to answer your question if you want adjustability, i would pass on the FMU setup and get something like the VAFC, theres alot of good info on here about the VAFC "Hack" so you are in good hands.
