if u use a fmu do u need a fpr ?/ 450 cc blue tops
 
if u use a fmu do u need a fpr ? what is better when turbo charging ? can u use both or does that defeat the purpose of the fmu ? im also thinking of selling some mitsu 450 cc blue tops with low miles any offers ? can the blue tops be used by them selves or do i need a management system ? thanks

Your car comes factory with a regulator :) I think you're a little confused. If you get an FMU you don't need to necessarily upgrade your regulator, unless you plan on running higher boost then say like 11sh psi. I don't know how good the FMU is for, but you're safe with factory injector sizes to run about 5-6 psi I believe. After that you definitely need to go up a little bit bigger.

The blue tops cannot be used by themselves, you will need an AFC to control them - but I would suggest going this route. Its worked wonderfully for me up to 11 psi. Hell even the other day I was running without the wastegate opening (forgot to reattach the vacuum hose) and the ------- motor was handling 18 psi :)
