Alright I have a few questions for you guys, but first klet me tell you my KA24DE turbo setup..... fully rebuilt oil and water cooled z31 T3 turbo starion FMIC CA18DET 370cc injectors 1G eclipse BOV custom LOG style manifold JEGS fuel pressure regulator JEGS electric fan walbro 255lbh fuel pump

Okay also I would like to boost my car to 10psi MAX and 7psi for daily driving. I have heard that FMU are good on small injectors and I was wondering if it would work good on my setup? If not are there any other options. I'm trying to do this on a budget so I hope it would be not too expensive. Thank you for your time Mike

You'll need some kind of fuel management to run 370 injectors. You won't be able to run a RRFPR with larger injectors either. Unless your ecu is mapped for that, which isn't usually done. Better off just using larger injectors.

The FMU is only used for increasing the volume of the stock injectors to compensate for the increase in boost pressure over normal.

Okay so I can't use 370cc injectors? If so or not what fuel management would you suggest?

Only slightly hi-jackin your thread.. Could he use a S-FMU? Im new to MAF sensors im used to MAP sensors and computers that freak out when they see anything above 0psi. Anyways, I just havent seen anyone S-FMUs around here.

thanks,tom

You can use the 370cc's, but you need some kinda fuel management. You have a couple of options-#1 retuned ECU (JWT)#2 piggyback (Apexi S-AFC, HKS S-AFR)#3 hacked MAF

I'm still not sure how the hacked MAF works, but check out this threadhttp://www.nissaninfiniticlub....24179

I understood the hacked MAF but didnt understand the purpose really. is it just so u dont have to buy a piggyback system or get ur ecu retuned?
