You'd also need a new motor as the pistons won't take those boost pressures. Some people argue that an aftermarket computer tuned to within an inch of it's life will handle the situation, however, I'm not prepared to go through umpteen motors to get the tune right, stick to 10psi or go to forged pistons. My setup is basically back to standard, with exception of the T28 hanging off the side. I run a modified AFM (spring modifications to lean it out a bit - I think this has to do with the better turbo as it only needed to be done when I put it on, but can't confirm this?), no intercooler, standard throttle body, fully rebuilt injectors, standard pistons, T28 running 7psi boost only, to give me 133.3 RWHP at @6000rpm. I find I need an LSD again, more than more boost. When on boost the computer runs the motor extremely rich as standard, I've had a narrow band A/F Ratio Meter in the car to check it. I think you're worrying too much about fuel regulation under intercooled boost conditions, but I don't have enough experience to confirm this. You could try "geoff" (I think - going from memory), he seems to have some good infomation on 3TGTE and the "electrical" side of their workings. I have run a standard motor on around 10psi without an intercooler without any problems, but wouldn't go past that. [Report message to a moderator]
