Do some searching in the FI section for best results.

Max power? What have you done to your motor? Your boost levels will be limited by the blower you're running. Novi 1500, 1200 or something else?

may need a upgraded fuel pump walbro 255 shud be ok. if you got the full kit you can use the FMU for now, and get an aftermarket ecu later. it will run better with a aftermarket ecu. I'd say get atleast an AFR gauge. Just a lil bit of info i learned from my research and my build.

Lots of info on this stuff in the FI section

You definitely need a fuel pump. Not maybe. You can try and run the kit off the fmu it comes with but many people, myself included have run very lean with it and had to upgrade to standalone ecu and injectors.

A wide and gauge I'd say is 100% necessary.

I'd focus far less on making "max power" (you're in over your head here), and instead focus on reliability and doing things "right".

An easy way to more horsepower/torque is to change the cam timing slightly. The car runs good NA with the changes and when supercharged......8 to 50+ horsepower. https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/860...-supercharger/

I suggest you do your homework before you take a tool to your car. No offense, but the mere fact that your asking these questions means you are very unprepared.

See deepblujh's post.

See deepblujh's post.
and that's why he is asking, to better prepare himself. Better to ask, than not and install without knowing what to expect. He is doing his homework, by asking and researching, he's asking his fellow students and teachers for help, carry on.

also OP needs to be more clear on max power. Max power on the blower or just for a certain pulley size?

As far as tuning goes, go to someone who has done their share of S2K's and is known to do a good job. No matter how good of a build you have, a shitty tune can ruin it all.
