to thread starter:
vtec turbo is not cheap. dont simply decide to do it if u have limited budget. moreover, most people nowadays no longer buy used pistons. people buy brand new forged pistons n rods. this can take u further, and also can withstand much more potential upgrades when u decide that beating ur neighbour's satria evo is not enough n u want to try to chase ur classmate/workmate's bmw e30 with 1jz.
for the same reason, better buy brand new walbro fuel pump cos it'll be 1 time investment, rather than buying some chop shop fuel pump, and when u want to upgrade more, u still have to buy walbro.
it might be expensive in the first place, but in the end when u look back, u will feel relieved that u have done the right thing.
as for engine management, crome (software for stock ecu) is extremely efficient. can control big injectors, can control fuel n ignition maps with boost. no need piggyback anymore...
soyouthinkyoucandrive: if local shops sell at rm480, try to look elsewhere. there are many reputable shops in aussie/states that sell at much cheaper prices, and sometimes they offer free worldwide delivery. of course your sr20 fuel pump is working well at ur current level. what if u decide to plonk in bigger turbo, big injectors, wind up the boost? i'm sure u still need aftermarket fuel pump.
