So today i will be finishing putting my ZPI stage 0 kit on my car...i will be running with stock injectors and no e-manage for now but will be getting an AEM fic and somthing like 550 injectors in the future and a HKS ssqv bov. Dont have any pictures right now becasue the care is at my friends house but i figured id introduce myself.

gl. thats a risky move no engine managment is dangerous.

congrats on the pre-running boost. Although it's not going to be ideal to be racing with, should at least buy a cheap management like E-manage to work with.

Good luck! Keep us posted on how it runs after a couple of weeks...

i got an apexi safc that i got when i bought a t25 turbo and thought i could make a custom kit with that but ill probly through that on in the next week or 2. but yeah ill keep you guys posted on how it runs....my friends were making fun of me because when we got it on and took it out for a drive the car was so slow and would keep stalling but it turned out that the coupler on the throttle body blew off but i put it back on (tighter) and took them for a ride and they were all just saying wow lol than i raced an s2000 and was able to keep up with it untill 80mph.

the kid who helped me put it on knew someone with an s2000 and they wouldnt leave me alone untill i raced them other than today im going to take it easy untill i get a fic and tune... lol should i not even bother with the safc?

grats on the boost...even though peeps are messing with you to race just dont do it, they dont have to pay the bill if something goes wrong. keep that in mind. take it easy and get used to your gauge readings.

just curious but do you have any gauges? mostly curious if you have a wideband.

tcrs20

lol no gauges as of now.... i know i know its horrible that im doing that but im getting a boost gauge in like a day and a wide band the same time i put my fic in but the car isnt going anywhere till i get the boost gauge in and i also have an oil leak on my oil return line at the peace that screws onto the tap for the oil pan...the guy did a horrible welding job on my oil pan and im getting my friends dad to fix it this weekend and ill be putting my boost gauge in on monday probly but other than that you were right speedy it is really loud when the dump tube opens lol

right. i would get a wideband first. i hope you didnt cook anything i bet your AFRs were incredibly lean. if not you might as well look down at your feet and choose which one you'd want to shoot yourself in.

tcrs20

lol i have another car to drive so im just driving that for right now but it was running incredibly rich for a little while but i really want to get engine management soon so i can start driving my car again lol.....tax return needs to get here soon

Syldrin

weird i don't see how those injectors can push enough fuel to run rich.

tcrs20

when i first started the car after the install it was running rich but now its defently running lean

rhythmnsmoke

How do you know it's rich? What indications are you going by?

egobuster1

if it was doing a lot of sputtering and back firing i guess that would be a good sign of being rich

rhythmnsmoke

Spoiler! I was testing him...

5 bucks says he assumed off smell.

tcrs20

lol i couldnt tell my friend is a mechanic that was the first thing he noticed was that it was running rich but like i said it isnt anymore it is defently running lean now.... it ran rich for a total of like 5 minutes and the more i think about it, it was probly because my charge pipe was loose.
