Older prelude injectors are actually 345cc I believe, IIRC stands for if I recall correctly.

You do know that if you're using an hf/std mani, it'll have to be modified to run an external gate right?

I'll be able to make it work. I've got friends who have done it before who will help me out with that as well.

Yea I'm gonna order an external gate @ 5psi and the charge pipes will be a custom job.

but with the hf/std manifold there is no flange for a wastegate which will not allow u to run one unless u hack it up and do some welding.

Yeah I know. In theory I'm going to have a piece of pipe in between the manifold and the turbo itself. I've already had the flanges made to do it. I think the "midpipe" will be about 3-4 inches in length to accommodate the wastegate. I'm not sure
if turbo height is going to be an issue or not yet. i.e in reference to the oil return line being too low. I don't think this will be a problem but I haven't mocked it up yet or anything.

get some pix up of the flange ur gonna use with the wastegate mount. ur t3 isnt internally gated right? cuz if it is u might as well keep that.

ya and why do u need a fmu if your getting 450 dsm or some prelude accord injector... pay some one 150 dollars to tune ur ---- wiht crome pro and a wide band you got a 92-95 civic right? assuming u have a d16z6 so a civic ex..obd 1 u got loose the fmu man..

oh ya and your resistor box question just get a ohm meter... and check the resistance.. i found out Mazda 626 ford probe turbo injector are 324cc @ 43 psi 12.5 ohms just like stock Honda so if the resistance is any lower you'll need to wire in the resistor box

I thought stock honda was more around 13 or 14 the reason for a 10 watt 10 ohm resistor 24 watts -10 watts = stock 14 watts? I may be wrong. Im building a turbo d16y7 my goal is 10psi i have 450cc injectors, safc2, and btm with a t3 48/60. FMU is trash.

Keep with the 450's in case you want to boost more in the future.
I wouldn't go any lower than 8 psi on that bitch.
