question bout 6psi untuned

Obviously, you want an engine management system. If you were to run untuned, I certainly wouldn't be running 6psi. Probably the most I'd even half-consider would be the smallest Tial spring offered, which is a 3.6psi spring. But again, I wouldn't do it.
Good luck with your project. I'm sure it'll give you the grin I get every time I press on the throttle.

why damage your motor a little bit so you can drive the car ? cause when you do get it tuned you wont be able to reverse the damage that has already been done. so you would not be getting the fullest out of your kit.

If I can find the link to the thread Im talking about I'll post it on this one so you can see... it's exactly what happens with boost and no tune or management system.

Turbos don't blow engines, boost does not blow engines (within reason
) Detonation destorys engines!I have a 2AZ-FE that I ordered in from a junkyard here at the shop that had the knock sensor come loose from the block. It was a NA engine no boost. Cylinders 2 and 3 both destroyed as well as the head. All from detonation gone wild. Even a NA engine can destroy itself if let to happen

found the link. I was on it the whole time , my bad. Just keep the kit and throw money into it when you have it and just be patient with it.

FWIW, I'm running 5psi with 440cc injectors on a XB2 2AZ-FE w/o EM and AFRs are great, driveability is great, idle is great and . It's been on for 2 weeks now and there are absolutely no detonation problems with 93 pump. Not even the slightest 'ping' and no misfire codes, pending or active. To be a little safer, I installed colder ND copper plugs and a 170F thermostat. I'll be installing a 3psi activated, single-stage water/meth solenoid controlled injection system using a 150cc misting nozzle in the intake mani very soon.
WMI is a great way to prevent detonation without pulling timing or wasting fuel for intake charge/combustion chamber cooling.
OTOH, if you're looking for 300+whp, get good EM and a good tune.
