I would like to hook a turbo up to my s-10, does anyone know if I would have to change the injectors or do anything with fuel/timing management? I will only be running 5-7 psi boost.

 

My friend has a turbo kit on his s10, 1989. Huge fueling problems because he can't regulate the fuel pressure with the way his stock injection system is set up. The newer vortec engines are much easier to work with. But, he dyno at 375 lbs of torque and 300 whp 10 psi. The truck is sick, and his turbo kit is for sale now as he just bought a Mazda 323 GT.

 

Mine is a 95 2.2L, It's only got about 130hp. So did your friend give up? and is there any way that you know of to fix his problem?

 

oh sorry, his is the 4.3 No the truck has been running for a year now making 10 psi. The fuel was still very hard to tune. Ended up making a bleed off valve on the top of the FMU to get micro adjustment out of it. In the end, it was the injectors that was the problem. They only work under very low pressure, and as soon as you add pressure, they go static. He said a few companies make performance injectors for his 4.3 and that would sold the problem, he was just to cheap to buy them He also made a 5.9 Dodge Dakota RT turbo. bad ****, since those pics, it now has a t66 in it.

An FMU can work, but it depends on your fuel system.. if I were you, I would look into a megasquirt type system or an SDS EIC system, (basically additional injector controls)

My fuel system is stock. And I dont wont to sound cheap but with a EIC i'm looking close to $700. I would like something relatively inexpensive but still does the job right, What would that be
