Might want a air/fuel ratio gauge.

and not sure but i dont think u need an FMU if your using an s-afc.

what you will need is:

-B6T turbo manifold & turbo
-Intercooler and piping
-high volume fuel pump
-larger injectors, 310cc is perfect
-bigger exhaust is highly reccomended 2 1/4" or bigger
-Blow Off Valve
-Boost sensitave Fuel pressure regulator
-Boost retard if you want to be extra safe
-Colder plugs is a must, 2 heat ranges colder is perfect
-misc lines and a T fitting for the oil feed line and a fitting for your Oil Pan, and water lines.

you will also need some guadges, EGT (Exhaust temp), A/F Wide band is expensive but it absolutly the BEST and easiest way to tune, and a boost guadge.

you dont need performance Cams or rings.

but for the most part thats what you need to get it running

Josh wrote:with a good boost sensitave fuel pressure regulator, a boost retard, and a wide band you can get it tuned in really good. but if you want to get it perfect you do want to get some sort of fuel management like an AFC or an Emanage. i know my 1.6L at 8:1 compression with my VJ14 and AWD, kept up with a 9:1 comp BP turbo with a VF10, both of us at 12psi with no problems and he was running a tuned AFC, and hes lighter. i am only running an adjustable FPR. and i stay just on the rich side all the time.

EDIT:

if you want to do it properly and you have around 500 to spand on Fuel management, try and find a BPT ECU and harness, and swap from a MAF to a VAF. then you will have no tunning issues, as the ECU is for a turbo. would be alot easier to work with.

if you are getting a FMU and SAFC there is no need to get your ecu reporgramed. You don't need to but if you want too thats cool too.
