Default turbo Q's

I have a B16a2 EG hatch and i'm just trying to get my head round the final little bits i dont understand before i go 4 it.....

*Can i run stock injectors on with a T3 (.48 a/r .42 exhaust and .50 wheel)
on say like 8psi? if not will some 450cc's do the job? will i need saturated or peak hold?

*Will my Eudm P30 ecu run crome with the extra boost software?
( i have already 'chipped it with crome)

* will i need a wideband kit too get a proper good tune?

*would anyone beable to send me a base map who's got a similar set up so i can 'fine tune' from that map?

*will a 680mm X 460mm X 180mm intercooler be good enuf for my application?

Thanks for any help, ste

I would upgrade the injectors to a much larger size. 450's would be a good choice. If your car has a resistor box, you will need peak and hold, low impedence injectors. If you don't have a resistor box, saturated injectors will be what you would need.

Yes, it will run Crome if it has a removable chip in it. I have personally tuned my car with Crome Pro and the ostrich, so I have some hardware information if you are need help. PM or AIM me.

Yes, a wideband is a necessity if you are tuning it yourself. That is the only way to tell if you have the proper AFR's. You will also benefit from some sort of datalogging program that will record your AFR's for particular engine loads and rpms. Without those two things, you cannot properly tune any car. Here is a good link to get you started on engine theory: http://www.xenocron.com/links.php?page=writeups

A basemap isn't very hard to make yourself. If you need a walkthrough, let me know.

I don't know what size that intercooler is. I think you have the numbers wrong because it converts that to 26 x 18 x 7.

Thanks das schmoo, that helps alot.
The intercooler i found on the internet had that size listed next to it......i basically want a intercooler pretty much the same size as the centre slatts/vent/mesh area on a eg hatch front bumper because thats wer i'm planning to mount it.

If you need help pricing out parts, i can also help. I've spent months shopping and piecing so i have a good feel for the market.
