Project direction HELP thread/poll

[FerociousP]

Here goes. My current project started with a 90 vert with 83k with no motor. I bought a Jspec TII from a guy in alabama before I had title issues with the shell and the car has sat for about a year. In October I got antsy and decided to start the motor. I ran it for about 2 minutes to know that it had compression, and it has basically sat since. The title issues are finally working out and its time to start thinking about the car again.

I have a complete FMIC setup to allow me to keep the stock hood, but I don't have anything to control the ecu with the bigger turbo and FMIC. I am running the stock 550cc injectors. My exhaust is a 2.5" DP to cat pipe to RB n/a catback.

Can I run the stock ecu with the bigger knightsport turbo an FMIC with 550s and not blow it up? (prob not). At this point, I would rather use a stock turbo than buy a RTEK and 750s or some similar route. Another reason is that this turbo may have issues and I'd rather not worry about more power and this point.

Could I run a stock turbo with FMIC and keep 550 secondaries?


What do you guys think I should do?? I don't want to drop too much more money into it as I just bought an SA that I want to play with... I just want this one driveable.


Anyone want to trade a stock turbo for a hybrid knightsport (may need work)?

Anyone have anything to say? Not even sarcastic comments? :o11:

All by myself, don't wanna be.....

Why not do what you want? Honestly you can easily route and mount a FMIC, what you really need to figure out is what is it worth to you. I know the Official RCC NA to Turbo thread is still lacking a lot but I wrote a good 3-4 posts about choosing what you want to obtain and use.

Well I guess my main reason for wanting to go to a stock turbo is to cut down on further investment to get the car running. I already have a FMIC to istall which lets me not have to buy TII hood. To run a larger turbo, I still need to spend another $500 or so. If I sold/traded the hybrid for a stock turbo, then I could run it as is with little added cost.

My project direction could hinge on whether or not I can run a stock turbo with little added (or none) cost.
