Just thought i'd share and let everyone know how my project is doing. I hope to be in the low 14s on street tires and high 13s with slicks, but only time will tell. Lots of tuning perhaps.....

how many psi you hoping to push?

Re:Turbo civic v1.0... Phase 2 begins (pics)
 

im going for 8psi daily with occasional 10psi runs at the track or a race

Didnt see anything about a new fuel pump. Definetly a must

Re:Turbo civic v1.0... Phase 2 begins (pics)
 

i like that intercooler. it looks tiny, yet very effective!!!

a new fuel pump a must? i've never heard anything about this..my boosted friends never have a problem with the stock DX fuel pump

Re:Turbo civic v1.0... Phase 2 begins (pics)
 

stock fuel pump is fine w/ TE. its only a must w/ AFC or an FMU.....

Nice stuff, say bye bye to your bumper support

Re:Turbo civic v1.0... Phase 2 begins (pics)
 

can you explain this to me bigwig.. why a TE tuned ECU doesnt need a fuel pump but an AFC hack does?

the ECU ROM basically does what the AFC does, only its coded into a chip instead of in the AFC unit. they are still controlling 450cc injectors and delivering the same amount of fuel...

.. actually, I dont get it wy you need to replace stock pump even for AFC? I mean... you don't push any more pressure to injectors.. and even 440's wont use so much gas that standard pump would fail?!

Bigwig is mistaken, you don't need a fuel pump. Maybe it's one of those "it'd be better issues" but you don't "need" it.
