well I got the FMU in and im running 5psi right now . I get an AFR under boost of 13.0-11.0 I wish there was a way to bump it to make it alittle richer.

Definitely look into using ECUFlash to remap your ECU, its capable of registering loads (for boost) and being recalibrated to use an EVO MAF.. you should be able to use Stock Evo injectors and tune for it with that.. makes life easier than having a mechanical FMU

heres a video just idling

I think you shold just relocate the batt to the trunk and give yourself some engine bay space. I did it and I didnt even have to buy one of those kits. All you need is a batt box 17 ft of 2g wire (+), 2ft of 2g wire (-) and connectors thats it all this u can get from autozone or advance auto parts for less than 35 bucks. But man Im impressed awesome job U gat me here hammering out my own turbo install in my head

I was going to just use the stock MAF and my stock 440cc wrx injectors and ECUFlash.

stock internals stand up fine. and I changed to stock wastegate actuator to one from a volvo for 5-7psi.

If your saying to put the battery in the trunk thats to much work. Later on im just going to fab up a bracket and move it to the evos location. but its fine for now.

Honestly I did it in like 30 - 45 mins its really not that difficult and I found it better being in the truck especially getting it out of that hot engine bay and out of the way for more space. If you were in Orlando I'd do it for ya just to get a look at that turbo setup. :thumbsup:

If I were to do it but I never will I would do it the right way with a real battery box, sealed battery and have duty cables and on/off switch. But i dont like the idea of a battery being in the trunk and I could just buy a mini battery and relocate it to where the evo has it it would be cheaper and safer. theres a reason why the put the battery under the hood ACID burns everything.

Im running a bout 5.5 -6psi, whats your afr like at 7psi?? i dont think i can run more than 5 psi cause now that I rasied it to 5.5 -6psi. i run to lean. i think its cause the 16g pushes more CFM than the t28 at the same psi.

^^ Very likely. I'm running 440cc injectors, 12:1 FMU, Walbro 255 and 7.5 PSI and my AFRs are at about 11.2 at WOT. I'm using ECUFLash for tuning.
