you will want a piggy back of some sort. like an apexi S-afc. and you will need bigger injectors to make that. 720cc secondarys would be fine.

you will be maxing the stock turbo out trying to make 250 at the wheels though.

edit: I see you already have four 680cc's. that's fine too. you will need the S-afc though too

and you need a bigger fuel pump. the gsl se one will be way to small. so will the stock turbo II one. buy a walbro 255 for around $120usd.

yeah im planning to use a safc and im gonna change from 680 by 4 to a 550 primary and 680 secondary because i think is too overkill and it doesnt work verry well either. and david randall told me that i can use the stock fuel pump for now. and im planning to change it later, i dont have the money now and 250hp well is not really what im looking for right now but im ok with less HP. i need it operate my engine with a turbo that the goal right now for me. hp is not what im looking for now. but thanks

I guess you could say it was all about bragging rights,i wanted to put the stock ecu into the 10's,but the closest i got was 11.60's @ 122 mph i was very impressed, the mazda ecu is dumb meaning when mazda decided to put a vein in front of the turbo it makes it very easy to trick the ecu to make more hp but like i said 450-475hp is the dead end.so now i would like to know has anybody else been able to make 500+ hp with the stock ecu?
According to the dude in this thread. Just don't go jumpin' on his "tips" unless you know what you're doin'. Very interesting nonetheless.

If you are getting an s-afc then I see no reason to take out the larger primaries. It will just give you more flexibility later on if you wanted it. And you can get a walbro for like $100 shipped. They had them at www.groupbuycenter.com , not sure if they still do though.

yeah but im using the stock fuel pump for now that why im taking the 680 primary's out to put 550cc and leave the 680 sec. and david randall told me that hes using the stock gslse fuel pump and he never had run out of fuel or havent got lean and hes using the same setup im gonna use and the walbro fuel pump that i always seen is intank and gslse is inline. is theres any inline ones?
