Default building turbo dpfi in 90 hatchback...

I am in the process in putting together a turbo kit for my d15b1 dpfi same as d15b2 just the standard version..anyways I have the hf manifold, I can make my own adapter plate, my own oil lines, for fuel I am gonna run 12:1 fmu with the ecu chipped for 8psi its only a chip not uberdata or chrome or anything like that...its not tunable for now...and I have a side mount intercooler and a bov...my turbo is off of a mitsu starion...its set at 7 psi where I will leave it until I get back from louisiana then I will fully build my block in the shop and run more psi with fuel management...so what do you guys think? have people turbo'd there d15 dpfi? well I am....

anyone else im going to try a d15b2, saab t3 turbo, saab bov, saab smic, 12;1 fmu, and a check valve at like maybe 7 psi. I have a lm-1 so im going to try to tune it as best as i can. How long does eveyone think it would actually last.

Not cause of the turbo or a/f mixture... Cuz of a fucked oilpump...

But... If had some proper stuff mounted (such as a turbo, without leaking seals) i'd probably still be boostin'.

Gonna go mpfi now...
