Oh no...not another one. Look man, if you're asking that question, it means you're not ready for the project. You don't need an FMU if you're using an S-AFC, regulator and bigger injectors. FMU is for stock pump and injectors. Take it this way: the 7A-FE in my opinion is very fragile and has no tolerance for errors or f@ck-ups. You do a mistake...it breaks. I've spent over $6,000 on just turbo stuff...and the engine broke. I made a lot of mistakes. I'll start with another engine. Anyway, look, search for 7A-FTE on this forums...lot's of info. Also, I wrote a topic with a lot of obstacles you'll encounter...other 7A-FTErs chimed in also...you have so much info there you'll piss on your pants, hehe.

You should do it yourself, because it's simple, then have them check over your stuff. You'll save money. >

Installing everything, it took me from 12 midnight until 4 in the morning with my buddy helping me.The only thing that was installed already was the AFPR and the braided lines on the fuel rail.

yea your 3sgte is cool but ill stick to my 7agte
no one has answered my question yet, i've been searching around alot, is that a good parts list to start buying stuff off of? Also alot of people seem to use the t3 turbo, and seem to be getting good numbers. But why wouldn't anyone use the ct26, the one in the gt4?
t3 has a faster spool, most people use the ct26 when theyre turboing the 5sfe so they can use the 3sgte exaust manifold.

What sort of 0-60, hp, and quarter mile times can one expect with an intercooled 7A-FTE?

ok so someone help me out, is that a good list?
its the list i used i just modded mine a little also in the fuel part you can get just the 10:1 fmu and fuel pump and be fine also get a manual boost control or electric
other than that your good to go.
