The main problem with a FMU is it does'nt take much to reach the safe limit. Fuel pressure can get very high and the fuel pump will not beable to supply enough pressure, plus the injectors could lock up. And it does'nt do any thing with ignition timing.
so i should get a new pump and keep the fuel sys as this : 240cc with a bigger fuel pump my stock one is 65psi so i should get a bigger pump and call in the day ?

Oh SnaP!

But seriously, I would'nt just go about running 7-10psi with the tuning that you have. Start at 6 (or as low as the waste gate will let you) and slowly work your way up untill you here deto and watch the AFR. With stock compression and timing with pump gas and piggy back's for tuning, 10 pounds can ---- thing up in a hurry.

Is there anybody else running a similar setup like this on the same motor? 240's may be enough for the amount of power you will be making. What kind of power do these things put out stock? I'm guessing its not much.

the 240's come from a 2.0 DOHC engine with 145bhp
