2 BAR map sensor for turbo setup, is it realy needed???

[locote]

will the motor run ok with the factory map sensor if it gets fed boost.
when can i get a 2 bar sensor from??

[ProECU]

factory map sensor can read 11.7psi of boost

[ALLMTR996]

The STD Honda map sensor will handle 11psi of boost.

kool,
i wont be running that much.
is a apexi safc2 ok to tune a low boost intercooled setup on a B18B, with stock pump injectors?
upgrading them later but wanna get motor turboed 1st.
looking at crower turbo cams aswell

[Weq]

if u want to use an afc, get 440cc injectors atleast. its called a hack and needs double the size injectors otherwise ur computer will throw a cell..

an emanage on the other hand can handle stock injectors.

[saxman]

while an safc will "work", it's a VERY poor option

hondata/uberdata/chrome/whatever other ems floats your boat is a far superior choice

Is there an echo in here, LOL

[ProECU]

Yes, but your motor cant....

either way, you need to upgrade injectors

[locote]

would 450cc injectors be good for 300fwhp????

[ProECU]

yeah, should be, if you need to, raise the fuel pressure.

Yes, but your motor cant....

i beg to differ. i know of plenty of sohcs running greddy kits, which have lasted alot longer (read; muiltple years, still going) then alot of built engines running standalones. its all about the limits and what you are happy with.

Perhaps. Let me clarify..I was refering to running stock injectors on a stock turbo motor (that was the original point)
The motor will not cope with a lean condition, which stock injector will most definate cause under boost.

Honda run injectors at over 80% duty cycle from factory.
And even though you could probably push them to 90+% duty cycle, its not such a great idea.
And even if you did, we're only talking capacity for about 2psi boost at the most.
I wouldnt be happy with 2psi boost after spending a few thousand for a turbo kit.

fair enough :)
