Default Newbie-Question

ALright I am really sorry because I know you guys get this all the time. Now I know a little about this and I am 17 and trying to turbo the CRX on a budget like everyone else on this site. Anyways I have a 91 dx with 103,000. It has MPFI and I want to run around 8 PSI. I have a T-25 and I understand I have to lengthen the actuator arm to run 8 off a DSM turbo. I want to know how to do that. My kit includes 1g SMIC, HF manifold, 1g BOV, and T-25. Im custom making the charge pipes and down pipe. I want to know that I need to run 8 PSI. I don't understand anything about fuel management and hope explain good parts and timing retard.If someone could make a list of parts and prices off the recommended parts I would greatly appreciate it. Once again sorry for asking but need to find out from someone. Thanks

That helps a little bit, so if i want to run anywhere from 7-8 psi can i just buy a rising regulator. Also where does the brass T fitting go behind the block. Thanks again. Also I've heard but don't believe a DOHC ZC can handle 10 psi with stock internals and run a long time. Once again I don't have money for a B-series so trying to work with what I got.

the brass T-fitting goes where your OIL PRESSURE SENSOR is which is right above the oil filter. take off the filter for easier installation of course!

LOL, oh no, they'll bash you. I think you got lucky and probably asked the right kind of questions.
