im wondering, would a apex fuel/air controller actaully work with the tc, because im looking into making my car a little bit faster, im buying an exhaust, after that ill have a i/h/e setup and then im coming to a hault with stuff i can do, im not doing pulleys because i dont know of the long term effects that will happen, im gonna do a stage 2 turbo, so im buying all the parts and then im gonna buy the turbo and install that, but im looking for other things i could upgrade to make the car a little bit faster before dropping a turbo into it, any suggestions?! and links would be appreciated, thanks guys, me and the ricans are looking to turn my car into about 12 seconds or faster, they have something up their sleeve but i dont know what yet lol

oh btw since they only drive civics they wanted me to ask how many lbs of boost you could put on the stock internals without breaking them

 

If you are going to buy a turbo, why bother going i/h/e?

Save the money, get the turbo sooner.

 

don't waste ur money, unless you don't plan on gettin the turbo for awhile.
buyin the I/H/E, and then gettin the turbo kit is spending too much money there....
either save for turbo, or run the I/H/E set-up for a bit
i have I/H/E, pulley,s-pipe and im runnin a bit rich...i have to put my emange in, and lean it out
id go with fuel mang. system either before you get turbo, or when you get the turbo.

as far as the stock internals, from wut im told, 12psi it can hold, but i wouldn't push it honestly.

 

yea im gonna do the apex fuel controller but i might just go with camcon, i can get apex super cheap but i dont know if it will wire into the vvt-i thats the only problem, um yea im not turboing till next summer so im gonna do exhaust and whatnot and then turbo it, and we might use the header i have and reweld a turbo into it ...ricans around here rock lol

 

If you have a Megan, the four runners meet pretty soon after the block and they are all equally lengthed so customizing a Megan header into a turbo header may be your best bet. You might also have to cut a whole and weld a flange for a wastegate onto the header if you want an external wastegate.

 

just get NOS! VVTi can handle that shiznit! but dont abuse it tho
