BoostDesigns Stage 1 kit ?

[Warped]

I was looking into your stage 1 kit and was wondering how much power im going to be looking at and what psi is the wastegate set at,also is it to be used with stock injectors,Also the 12:1 fmu isnt that a little much for the stock injectors to handle i mean if your kit is to run at lets say 6 psi that means im running 72psi over stock can the ka fuel system even keep up with that?Thats some serious pressure.Ive also been reading that almost everyone running a fmu and stock injectors are using 8:1 fmu and are able to go to 8-9 psi any reason why you guys chose 12:1?sorry for all the ? just dont see the answers anywhere on your site

Better to just call PJ - He's great to alk to and you'd better have a notepad handy!

Hey PJ - I got my injectors (370cc) ready and am installing the VLSD and moving the battery this weekend!

[Warped]

yeah just thought this would be a good way for him to explain his kit or maybe post it on his site

btw its inline4

[AZhitman]

Oh, hey! Haha...

[Warped]

i was wondering because i have a 12:1 fmu reason for selling injectors im not really doing enging management right nwow saving up for a standalone, and i just wanted his input they have obviously tested the kist and musht have worked just checking there stage 1 kit goals to see if i should get the 8:1 disk like everyone else on nico have tried and worked flawlessly

I'd run a hacked MAF before I'd use the FMU. Just my opinion though. I'd also upgrade fuel pumps at the earliest convenience. MSD makes a cheap inline booster pump that works well, if you don't want to dig into the fuel tank.

Has anyone hacked an s13 maf? I have a little prototype hacked maf that I'll test once I finish getting the injectors and fuel pump in.. but I'll save the results(and how I did it) for another thread.

and for WDhttp://www.nicoclub.com/zerothread?id=88870

i have 370cc's and a fmu right now and a extra set ka injectors, that thread just made it easier for me not having to hack my maf 1 dont wanna blow my 50k mile motor and the fmu is easy to install thats all .

thanks for the info on the msd i really dont wanna dive into my tank

If you buy a FPR, I just looked at BD's site again, he has a better regulator with a built in gauge...which pisses me off since I just bought a new one with a bunch of fittings...etc.

so your saying stay hack and stay with 370cc and get a fpr?

[Craving4Boost]

maybe its to safe u time and money later on? since its easy to find bigger injectors and upgrade. maybe

[Craving4Boost]

^^ oopz i meant save not safe

[Craving4Boost]

oh yea and i remember he dynoed the stage 1 kit. it was about 230hp at 8psi? but make sure and ask him

[WDRacing]

As with any type of fuel managment. install the parts and get it on a dyno to make sure your not running lean. So with the HAcked MAF and FPR you can get on the dyno and check your AF's, it they are to low, crank the fuel pressure a few lbs and richen the mixture up. Either way I'd retard the base timing 2 degree's just to be safe. Well actually I wouldn't, but I have the MSD Knock meter also, along with the LM1 Wide band. I can't live without both of those. In a nut shell, yes, I'm saying stay with the hacked MAF and 370's.

So can this be done to an S13...??? - No...at least not in the same manner.

Due to the design of the S13 MAF (for one, it's metal), it would be much different. It could be done, but it would involve putting the entire middle of the MAF tube (the guts) into and bigger tube so that air would pass around the outside of the element - You'd need dyno time to calculate the exact, proper diameter of the bypass tube, etc...

It could be done, but not nearly as easily...

Read that I'm assuming that you have an s14

[Warped]

yes i have a s14 , it just said how the did the calculations for it i thought it might help you if your doing something that people have tried and havent gotten to work

Fuel pump / 370cc Injectors / SAFC-II = the WIN

yes we like using the 12.1 disk because i already know boost is addictive and within a few weeks of buying this kit the boost controllers go on it. well with the 12.1 it allows for a little more boost i have actually ran the stage 1 setup on the wifes s13 for over a year with a 12.1 at 9 psi and have never had a fuel related issue with the vehicle although the spring that comes in the kit is a 7.5 PSI. true 12.1 is a rich mixture but i am in the business to sell kits not blow motors, so i make it a little rich kind of like how jim wolf sells his ecu on the rich side its a liability issue... no one want to have a kit that you put on a right off the block you blow it up. now what you guys do after you get the kits is beyond me so of course if you feel you need to change disk in your fmu then thats your choice. i sell what i have used and know for a fact works.... thanks guys

[Warped]

thanks for the information i have a 12:1 now so i will be using that, even the stock fuel pump was ok wow i think ill still do the inline msd to help out but im glad to see the stocker is ok with that kinda work

PJ ui was also wondering if you would sell just a dp for a t4?
