S-10 custom turbo project
 

I'm doin a custom turbo on my 96 2.2L s-10. Right now it pushes about 100 horse. I'm lookin to run about 6 psi. I need a cheap fuel managment system though. I'm using a turbo off a plymouth laser (hopefully it will fit), running no indercooler. Since the TB is pointed toward the exhaust side of the engine the turbo is gonna be perpendicular to the engine. It's pretty much going in place of the AC system which doesn't work anyway. If the turbo will fit close enought to the block then I may build a mounting bracket for the turbo that fits there. I know I need a new fuel pump and injectors but i'm not sure what fits and what doesn't. If i can i'm gonna go with a fuel pump off another turbo'd car. Injetors will probly also come off another turbo'd car. If anyone has suggestions on cheap fuel system upgrades(pump and injectors) or on a cheap fuel management system they would be appreciated.

Do those have return type fuel systems?

return type fuel systems?

Re:S-10 custom turbo project
 

return type meaning the excess fuel returns to the pump and that the pressure is regulated to change flowrates. If it is, you can use an FMU. It raises fuel pressure and deals with boost on the stock injectors. It's good with low boost. Find out.

Good luck.

sounds cool, i remember there was a boost'd s-10 on ebay. looked pretty bling.

Re:S-10 custom turbo project
 

It IS return type fuel system because other guys who have turbo'd their s-10's have used FMU's. I just need to know some good companies to get them from. I want a cheap one too. This is just for my banger truck so it doesn;t need to be high quality, just good enough to keep from blowin the engine. I'm only runnin like 5-6 psi. I'll have the only boosted truck in town. The only thing I have left to get is the fuel management. I already have the manifold, turbo, and coolant system lined up. Will I need new injectors? What about a different fuel pump? I want to get both of them cheap, probably used, if I can.

jon has a gt..which is a 2.4L... the 2.2 would be in the base modles. check around on j-body.org for some help on boosting a 2.2. same engine as base modle cavaliers and sunfires.
