I get slight hesitation on move off but I assume that is due to the retarted timing, I am looking to get a MSD boost timing master so that i can run standard timing again. <p>I am using 1.8 injectors, a Walbro 255 fuel pump and a Vortech FMU with 8:1 disk for fuel management.<p>I am also considering changing the IHI VJ14 turbo for a more powerful one, any there any turbo upgrades that will fit on my GTX manifold with little or no modifications for example a WRX turbo for instance.

I don't have anything yet, but I was planning on putting back in the S-AFC. I thought that was the problem to begin with, i.e. bad ground or something. I got the LX injectors and RX-7 Fuel pump, but no FMU or anything like that.
