Opinions for upgrades
Hey everyone. So my stock turbos are finally really starting to die (168000 miles). Yes that's right 168k. Anyway I'm getting a good set of '99 spec turbos.(other mods in my sig) I'm looking at upgrading the ecu to the Adaptronic. I also want to upgrade the fuel system. So new a new Nippondenso Fuel Pump and fuel rails/injectors.
Now my question about fuel I did find nice some nice info @ TurboRX7.com > Fuel System Facts towards the bottom I see that 3700cc/min is good for 405hp @ 85% and 475hp @100%. So my question is would running 850 pri and 1000 sec be just fine instead of the 550/1300 shown on the site.
I've been eyeing the injector dynamics 850's and 1000cc on RX7store.net. But which fuel rail should I look at getting?
Honestly I don't see myself shooting for 400hp. But I would rather play it safe and have the fuel available for boost spikes.
I've had all the reliability mods done for a long time and have not had many issues pop up. I'm still running the stock intercooler for now. I think next year I may just go the Vmount route.
Thanks for any insight you give!

I understand your need to upgrade the fuel, but 550/1300 is good for stock turbos. I mean there isn't a whole lot of difference in the 99's. If you went to the bnr set as mentioned by another poster then I could see pushing more.

I had read that somewhere about the 850's and the PFC and also about the "bored out injectors" and that's why I posted that I wanted to run the Adaptronic ECU and run injector dynamics 850's pri and 1000 as sec. So far I had read good things about that ECU.
Like I said running that setup and ECU looks like it gives me a lot of room to play. Esp if I do decide to upgrade a little later.
I do have a street ported motor, intake and complete exhaust. So with the '99 turbos what HP am I looking at (300-350hp??) if anyone could clue me in a little. Maybe I'm over thinking the fuel?
Thanks
