Default almost got boost what do you think

First I want to say if it wasnt for this site boost would have only been a thought but soon it will be a reality because of this bad *** site.But enough of that. I would like some constructive criticism about this low boost set up that I have and that Im about to put on the car.I say low boost because my 95 integra has 180,000 miles.But the motor is in good shape.No smoke no knocks no nothing so far. garrett t25 off 88 grand prix set at 5.5 but I want 7lbs hks turbo manifold 8:1 ratio fmu str fuel rail and regulator johny race car fmic 2"mandrel bent pipes to intercooler 21/4" pipes from intercooler to throttle body stealth mode oil line kit auto meter boost gage and stoich gage aem cam gears - unorthodox under drive pulleys I know some are going to say ---- the fmu but its low boost setup and would I need a msd btm

your gonna need a BOV and i would say to get at least 2.5 piping. even us d guys wouldnt put 2 inch piping on our motor, so i would certainly not expect a b to have it.

yo buddy, you might really want consider dumping that FMU and getting a Uberdata basemap... but its your setup and its your call.

Post up some pics.

I wouldnt worry too much about the 2.25" intercooler piping. If you've already got them and mocked them up just use them.
