Default my custom turbo set up


here is my set up so far. i do have a vafc but that won't do anything for my kit... its untuned anyway. i don't have a ems. can i get away with running low boost with out a ems... i'm thinking of running 5 psi most of the time and 7 when i really need to. tell me if i need to do anything with my fuel system as well. this kit is meant for me to run 400+ hp maybe 300... i understand that .
the elda kit and rev hard kits don't have any type of aftermarket ems or piggy back units... but i'm pretty sure they are designed to run low boost as well.

garett T3/T4 turbo (.63-.81a/r)
intercooler (24x8x3.5)
custom manifold (jet coated)
down pipe
piping
vortech 12:1 FMU
all coulplings and clamps from turbonetics
turbo xs bov
tial wastegate

set to run 7 psi.

I think this is the fast route to a rebuilt engine and future AEM EMS use.

The eManage allows you to adjust the fuel delivery and timing. It's your first (but not likely your last) step in the right direction.
