is 10lbs reliable?, garrett T3bb Options

[Kerr1]

ok im wrkin on a turbo kit 4 my freshly rebuilt 5sfe. heres a list of everything done to the motor:

bored .040 w/ topline pistons
arp head studs
soon to have arp rod bolts
cometic metal head gasket
everythin else if brand new but still stock..
new motor now has around 1000 miles on it

ive always heard a motor w/ arp head studs and rod bolts combined w/ a good head gasket can handle a lil more power and i was wondering since burien kits run a reliable 7lbs do u think w/ the right setup and proper tuning a 5sfe could be daily driven on 10lbs....

ne advice as appreciated thanx.

an safc will work... its just not a good way. like he said, an emanage or something that offers a bit more than a general fuel map based on rpm and 2 points of throttle position will be alot better.

if this is just a fun weekend car then thats prolly the way to go with an safc, but if you want the car to run normal and still have drivability, you're better off going the emanage route.

its not the matter of actually dyno tunning the car, its using the right equipment so that all the time spent tunning is put to good use

I agree with what you are saying, but i think many will agree with me when i say Emanage is not for everyone. It is very difficult for new users who are unfamiliar with any kind of tuning. SAFCII is pretty much your novice-intermediate tuning as it allows you to pull/add fuel or air when you need without needing a laptop in your car.

Kerr1, Once you finish your turbo set up, take your car to a reputable shop (and by REPUTABLE i mean have done EXTENSIVE tuning work) nearby and ask for a complete tune and dyno. They can easily tune your car with the SAFCII and make it RUN DECENT.

But if your looking for PRIME DRIVING then i would recommend the Emanage...
