need some advice on my turbo vert...ecu/fuel questions
i am in the process of putting a streetported s5 t2 motor into my 90 vert. i do not want to install a standalone as i already have a built t2 with one. i am not wanting to push crazy power out of this car, just a fun weekend cruiser.
here's what i have so far:
streetported s5 t2 long block
act clutch/pp
n370 ecu/afm/map sensor
walbro
rewired s5 na engine harness
cleaned/flow tested 550cc & 1600cc injectors
t2 driveline
bnr stage 2 hybrid
corksport 3inch turboback exhaust
aeromotive fpr
basically what i want to know is if a rtek is safe to run this turbo with 500/720cc injectors on 12-14lbs of boost. i dont want to wait for the 2.0 version to come out because i dont think it will be out until the summer. i basically want to drop everything in and go. i dont want to have to tune this car. is this enough fuel?
or should i keep the 1600's and use a safc to fine tune everything?
if i could safely use the 1.7 rtek and 720's that would be great so i dont have to spend the few hundred dollars on a wideband and the safc. is anyone else running a similar set up? thanks in advance.

Your hybrid is a stage 2, which is an upgraded cold side , plus a port job on the stock wastegate iirc. Check with NJ Greenbudd on the forum. He is using a bnr hybrid (stage 2 I think) with rtek and 720s with no reported problems. I personally wouldn't use the stock tmic above 10 psi. It's not very efficient above that.

Rtek7 2.1, BNR Stg 1 Hybrid, (4) 720cc
they dont have a 2.x chip out for the s5 t2 yet

since you have a BNR stage 2, 720/720 with Rtek 1.8 will work I think, as long as you've rewired the fuel pump. I think the guy who did 348ish with an Rtek 2.1 had 720/720 , search the dyno sheets subforum. I would NOT use 1680's with anything but a full standalone due to the injector staging issues.

I was wondering the same thing while doing my build over summer. I was considering using a BNR stage 1 w/ 4x720s and a Rtek 2.0/2.1 like NJgreenbudd, or even 720/1000 with fuel adjustments. From what I can tell from digging through posts, the low 300 rwhp range is about the limit of four 720s, so a 1.8 should work too, but you'll be limited to only boost control to tune it.
If I were to run a hybrid of any sort with a 1.7 & 550/720s, I'd be keeping it around maybe 8psi until I was damn sure the AFRs were still in the 10s-11s.
