Just Bought Turbonetics Turbo
Hey guys I just bought the 15102 Turbonetics Kit It shows that this turbo can run on a stock engine and ecu at 8psi. I also purchased the walbro fuel pump. Other than that my engine and ecu is completly stock. Is this a safe thing to do with this engine I dont have any more $$$ to do anything else???? Please HELP!!!
Here are the kits specs: I contacted turbonetics and they said that i can bolt this kit on the stock engine and ecu and there is no tuning required. Anybody know much about these kits?
Turbonetics offers complete turbo systems - from air entry to exhausting to the catalyst. The Turbonetics turbo system is a true O.E. bolt-on that does not require "hacking" in order to install.
Pieces mount to existing factory positions and maintain all optional equipment including air conditioning. With these kits you no longer have to worry about 4 - 6 weeks of downtime to get a kit fabricated because our kits can be installed within 8 - 12 hours.
In addition, you don't have to worry about inexperienced tuners experimenting with your car, because our fuel and ignition management systems come pre-programmed to maintain a consistent air/fuel ratio and timing control under all conditions. Unlike others, we can back this up with the MoTeC or Horiba real-time five gas air/fuel meter and in-house dyno testing.
* Kit contents may vary based on vehicle application

I don't know much about their fuel system or engine management, but I would rather use larger injectors and a Hondata to tune...far superior to any standard tune a company comes up with.

Problem Solved I have a 96 GSR with of coarse doesnt come with an obd1 ECU So I bought a obd1 p72 Ecu with the obd2 - obd1 harness. I also bought the hondata s100 with boost and 4 dcm 450 cc injectors. Now all i got to do is send my ecu off and get it chipped for 80 bucks and a local shop is going to tune it?? DOES THIS SOUND A LITTLE BETTER GUYS?
