Default Questions about turbo kit? Injectors

I have been looking at a few turbo kits and they all seem to only include 2 injectors, and no fuel pump, but claim to be complete? I was under the assumption that I at least needed all 4 injectors, and a fuel pump would be an added bonus. Could someone explain this to me? Also, would it be safe to use the 2 injectors and stock fuel pump running the turbonetics fuel management untill I get two more injectors, Fuel pump, and Hondata with a tune?

You need 4 injectors...

Search for tubonetics. I know that we just recently talked about their management setup. I'd also drop the ~$100 for the Walbro 255 lph lp pump as well.

Really? Over 2000 posts & u never heard of Turbonetics?

They use a pre-programmed injector driver to deliver "extra" fuel through the use of 2 extra injectors, mounted in the Intake pipe...

While these are not very accurate, they do the job, by adding a pre-determined amount of fuel, to compensate for the added pressure in the combustion chamber...

Most people build there own set ups. I guess thats why I have never heard of just 2 injectors. And yes, I have heard of Turbonetics.

I just want to make sure I'd be able to run it for a couple of weeks before I get the hondata and tune. Is hooking the fuel injectors to the intake a PITA? What's required?

That is the easiest part of the turbo install.

If you have OBD2, you will have to splice in OBD1 clips. If they are peak and hold (low impedence) injectors, you will need a resistor box. If they are saturated (high impedence), you won't need a resistor box.
