ok so im looking at either getting a new turbo or a ecu ?? ive a recently rebuilt to standard vlt spec engine thats been o ringed, avo cooler extra fuel pump 3" exhaust 3" cooler piping and a massive k&n pod filter getting a boost controller fitted and upping the boost to 15 pound next weekend , then should i A: upgrade my ecu and injectors B: go a bigger turbo C: forged pistons

computer Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

ecu and fuel system without a doubt

a, B then it all goes pop, C.

ecu + fuel system. The stock turbo is easily capable of blowing your engine without the proper fuel system. Stock injectors shouldnt really be pushed further then 12psi, a mate of mine melted a hole in his piston running 14psi pn stock injectors + turbo

i say forgies cause once u have a strong bottom end then u can upgrade ur turbo and ecu ect. without a problem

Yeah he had a cooler and he was running it for over 6months on 14psi. It was always on the verge of leaning out and eventually it just went too lean. Perhaps some ppls stock fuel systems could handle 14psi but all it would take is something like a dirty fuel filter to lean it out, its running it right on the line. Not worth it IMO.

well iv a extra fuel pump so its upgraded a little, ive a malpassi as well but i got told by some one that builds a lot of performance cars not to bother they are ****?? any one not thinking so?? so its not on at the moment

No ifs or buts around it really. Fuel pump wont change how much fuel the injectors flow unless you crank the fuel pressure and even then theres little increase. Just go for the injectors and ecu if you want more than 200rwkw then get a turbo to suit when you have the money

I donno how many vlt's I see getting around in my area with all the bolt ons in the world but with the stock ecu/injectors Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

do them all at the same time

yeh cool, as for the malpassi thats sitting in the shed any waywell mind is made up il do the ecu and injectors......but wat one do i get
