E36 M43 318i turbo kit

Most, if not all, cars use fuel presure regulator.
And depend on your Intake Manifold Pressure, your fuel pressure in fuel rail increase and decrease depend on your throttle.
Example, at idle is 10psi(manifold in vacuum), and 20psi when WOT (no vacuum)
By increasing the fuel pressure, you can get more fuel into engine without increase the injectors size.

Here is the interesting part : alot of "self-acclaim" mechanics don't care or don't know how to adjust "fuel map". So increase your fuel pressure
with adjustable FPR(Fuel Pressure Regulator) is the EASIEST WAY to increase your fuel when you Forced Induction it.

Because adjustable FPR increase your fuel pressure LINEAR-ly, you will have WAY TOO RICH mixture before the turbo spool in.
Result, you get 1. white smoke, 2. fault spark plug, 3. clog CAT, 4. clog O2 sensors, 5. short lifespan Turbo, and etc bad things.

Will it work with my new TURBO + adjustable FPR? Yes. But how long?

how to remap fueling...? does it mean remap ECU.....

to do this properly you will also need to uprate your suspension and brakes. it would be cheaper to just sell your car and get a 325.... not to mention more reliable too.

Ade, look for Ah Heng (0123811331) at USJ. He did the 4 to 1 header together with the necessary stainless piping for me, and it was superbly done. I then had the header ceramic coated. Previously did the thermal wrap thingy but found it messy.

You have to do some leg work, in getting used turbines and intercooler. As for blow-off valve, if you are on a budget just use the internal wastegate that comes with the turbo. However, I would recommend a piggyback ECU to ensure proper fueling and to optimise the performance.

Hey AlBundy, would like to see the header work done on your car !

bro, can u share with me how much did u paid for the header and wat type of material that they use? any ready made header for M43 engine? TQ
