did you mean a Greddy kit? or is your turbo just Greedy for air? nah, i'm just playin yo. yah man, be sure to have your car tuned before you run it. the last thing you need is for your motor to blow, then you're really screwed. umm, if your turbo kit didn't come with bigger injectors, then yes, you have to upgrade your fuel system. plus, you might need one of those doohickies like a VAFC i think it's called to monitor your fuel system. the main thing is that since your car is sucking in higher volumes of air now, it will require more fuel to get the most power out of your motor. the small, stock injector just won't cut it, and you'll be cheating yourself of your car's max potential if you don't upgrade your fuel system. hope i helped a little bit. good luck mang.=)

yea all of the above is correct....if u really want max potential you should build ur head ..... a built head will maximize air flow end result more power.....

def. need bigger injectors and i'd suggest a fuel pressure regulator but you probibly don't have to have it and yes a vafc. apexi makes a good one.. something along those lines.. besides that it's up you how much you want to get into and how much boost your plan on runnin in this thing.

You know even with this being an older post I am surprised no one told him that he needs to get his computer reprogrammed for the altered fuel map?

you can run 10-15psi on a stock motor. In the 20s you're pushing it, and in the 30psi range, better start looking for a better motor cause the stock one wont last 1 sec!!

My bud and me blew his B18C1 in his Integra GSR with a 35psi boost. All's good, cause he put in a B18C5 for $400 cash.
