well originally was goin to go with a 8:1 FMU but have a chance to get the 12:1 for pretty cheap.. do you guys think this would be too much for the 5sfte?
Thanks --------------------  99 project version 3.0.. hello SEMA 2010 =) |

get RR FPR, it will be better, you will be able to adjust the pressure like you want.
12:1 is a bit too much Matt. I sugest going with 8:1 -------------------- Ex celica owner - just a guy from other side of the pond...

8.5:1 would be perfect 4 is way to low - you wont be able to move the car until the turbo spools and 12... well... cut a hole in your hood so you dont damage it when the block goes up in the air. |

well think I might try the 4:1 at first just cuz the price I can get that one for.. and if I think its runnin too lean i'll swith to a 8:1 diafram (sp?). I'm running a warblo supra fuel pump and the fuel lines are new also so think I should be alright.. if not I'll know right away and swap it out to 8:1

um i think its better to start with a rich running setup then leaning it out. more than likely 4:1 will run really lean. if you want one right away, get the deal on the 12:1 and then switch to the 8:1 diaphram. its safer. -------------------- 1994 Celica GT4 WRC Edition

Why not get the higher pressure one and a regulator in case you need more down the road?

well I only plan on running around 5-6psi tops and 3 for daily driving.. so I don't wanna run rich all the time.. thats why im leanin towards the 4:1 now instead of ne of the others.. was gonna get the 12:1 just cuz of the price... who knows but I gotta figure something out..
The 5sfte will work without a FMU correct? -------------------- 99 project version 3.0.. hello SEMA 2010 =) |
