Default no problems yet

i have heard a lot of horror stories about fmu's and i have been running a turbo on my b16 for probably 5 months compeltly untuned at 8 psi.... all i have for fuel management is a fmu, and had no problems except for the turbo crapped out (cuz it was old) o well have a new turbo now.... but the point of my question is, would the car be a LOT faster if i where to have it tuned or am i safe at 8 psi with no tunning... thanks

yea i doubt it would be A LOT faster, but you can def.ly feel it.

you are also decreasing the chance of ------- up your motor from an untuned setup

And your car won't sound like ----. ****-rich exhaust noise is not "JDM Yo".
