Me or him?

 

[Rich777]

Him, i don't know the question well enouth to give my opion...

 

[Sleeper Status]

Well once I saw no Boost controller and FMU that was wrong already in my book...

 

[Rich777]

Yeh same here, i just want to make sure though. Maybe he wants to make a bomb out of his engine ? ?

 

[Sleeper Status]

Not to be an ass but that's a pretty good set-up if that's the case.

 

[Rich777]

Lol... it sure is

i forgot i got a hondata s300 ecu and gonna dyno it

An FMU is pointless if you have Hondata. Honestly if I was the tuner I would have told you to get a proper set-up before you put those wheels on the rollers.

 

[Rich777]

This is crazy, just take it to someone that knows what there doing and get it setup and tuned properly.

an FMU and upgraded fuel pump are okay to use temporarily, or only for people looking to gain very little power and run only 6psi. They work and are plenty safe when setup properly, there just not that fast.

6 PSI isn't going to make a world of difference, but still will be enough to cause problems (head gaskets, pre ignition). Went down that road before. My advice is save your money until you can do a little internal work. Even if it's just going to be pistons and a gasket set up for boost, before you jump into any forced induction.

It's not Plenty safe when you get ping because your timing is too advanced...
your ECU was set-up for N/A. not 6psi of boost. You may have the correct amount of fuel. But that's only half the battle...

I think 6 psi on a td04 would be a problem on FMU + fuel pump only.

No boost controller = better for his setup as he would be running base wastegate pressure only. No boost controller is not such a bad thing, safety-wise.

P28 or P30 with crome will so the job for cheap and keep the car reliable as long as its tuned properly.
