is it safe?

[edd 5512]

right my mate is wanting to make his gt a bit quicker but he wats to make sure it will be safe. He currently has a decat and cat back exhaust fitted.

He intends to fit:

hks actuator

hks fcd

fuel pressure regulator

boost guage.

he was hoping to run 0.9-1.0 bar with these mods. would it be safe?

Thanks for you help, Edd.

hi edd

if he upgraded the fual pump and fitted a wide band af gauge to monitor the tune then yes, alot of people have a similar setup/

the turbo life will be shortened if you are running a bar all the time.

i must also say that this is the crude way to more power wapping up the fual pressure

doing it properly would require some aftermarket management and a mapping session

ok. thanks for the response enzo. i'll say to him and see what he wants to do

Tell him to forget the FCD as it's way too crude to be really used daily,just get the actuator+the other stuff and a fuel pump and set it to just under fuel cut till he can sort some proper piggy back or standalone management.

FCD run too lean and can nicely bugger the engine up if not set up properly

Standard fuel pump should be good for 200bhp so no need to change really

It is but it's no spring chicken tho

So a replacement 175LPH or new standard pump wouldn't be a bad idea ;)
