Someone else can verify this but for 8psi I don't think you need to upgrade those injectors..... I'm pretty sure the stock ones will handle it.... as for parts check this place out

thats what ive always heard. Anything >8psi would most likely need injectors. However wait for someone thats done this to clarify.

you should also install a A/F radio gauge to examine whether you need new injectors/pump or not. If it starts to run lean at high rpms/speeds, you most likely need new injectors/fuel pump. (assuming its tuned correctly)

Dont hesistate if its running lean though! you can pretty easily melt a piston on a lean-running engine.

The one thing you shouldn't ever skimp on is fuel delivery. A higher flowing fuel pump and larger injectors are a nice safety cushion. Whether you need it or not, at some point you're going to want to up the boost at some point. DSM manifold will not fit.What ECU do you have now?

Also, gettinga wideband to find out if you're running too lean just so you can verify needing a pump/injectors is just stupid and *** backwards.

Don't buy from F22parts, they have the worst customer service and don't even test their own products.

Stock ECU with skunk2 chip? Skunk2 doesn't make chips for ecu's. Sounds like an ebay product. Either way that ecu won't do you any good if you go turbo.

Running lean is too much air and not enough fuel. Things get very hot when this happens, its how you melt pistons. Running rich is just the opposite, too much fuel and not enough air.

I already linked you to this but I guess you didn't find it - http://www.spoolinperformance.com/lo...fold-p-58.html

cant you just use a stock ecu...it may not give you all the horse power or whatever but it shouldnt affect how a turbo runs

if the accord is the same as a civic ecu i turboed my brothers 1.6 and a guy close buy programs the small chips for 20 bucks according to what mods u got and so on. it is quick and easy to change. you can go and get a full ecu also.
