Get rid of the FMU, get bigger injectors, get your ECU chipped or buy a chipped ECU, get tuned on the stock MAP sensor, boost 10psi an be happy.

i can get the bigger injectors, the blue 450 dsm ones, as for the whole computer thing how do i go about doing all of that, i live in the middle of nowhere and the closest town is three hours away. and how do i tune the stock map sensor? do you know if there is anyone on this webpage that can do that? i need to get this stuff done asap, also why can't i use the fmu? i take it i just wasted money there right? and if i can't get the computer done right now can i survive on the fmu for a little bit?

I suggest you read through the FAQ on this board.

Then look at:

www.pgmfi.org
www.tunewithcrome.com
www.uberdata.info

And if you need ECU stuff...send me a PM...I would love to help you out.

DIY stuff isnt easy, and yes you can survive on the FMU for a little bit...but if you want the best bang for your buck, and you like your motor, start to research the DIY ECU stuff...you will be happy you did :)

check valves for fmu. leave ur map sensor in stock place for ecu chipped or safc

Re: turboing a D15?
 

how many check valves should i use?

Re: turboing a D15?
 

to use a fmu u will probably need a bigger fuel pump.. a used wallbro is about 90 bucks a used fmu is about 70-80 and check valves youll need about 5 of them taht makes 20 more bucks equals 180 $... getting a new chipped ecu with a basemap made by xenocron is 135 and about 70 for a conversion harness if you need any that makes about the same money as using the fmu setup but much safer and better... talk to xenocron he is good at his job

Re: turboing a D15?
 

i will give u 3 check valves and a fmu its red used for about 20 miles. $90 shipped in u.s

Re: turboing a D15?
 

he already has a vortech fmu ::)
my advice is to sell it and pm xenocron about the ecu stuff
