When 1st time run turboed car, what fuel setting? SMC related
 
Ok so say i got everything done, all oil lines hooked up, all pipes all the injectors are good... and i use a SMC or SMC 500..

-35 is NOT PSI.. it's the flow percentage... meaning -35% of 450cc flowrate.... that means it's running pretty rich... 3xx cc.. vs your honda ---- 240cc which runs about only 200cc

isnt -35% the fuel cut and not fuel supplied?
