you will need some sort of fuel system upgrade if you want to boost. an NA car is never ment to have more than 1 atmosphere of pressure and because of that even if you turbo the NA car, the car's ecu will want to either fuel cut(caused by MAP) or only give enough fuel for an NA setup.

an fmu is the cheaper and faster way to upgrade the fuel system, although i have heard that the GT fuel system maxes out at 160hp(replace the fuel pump at that point) you could go with bigger injectors but then you would need something to control the injectors(safc).

Jason, what kind of fuel upgrades do you have? im not 100% sure on the 5sfe but with the 7afe, fuel work is 100% required

You can get by with the 2 bar and 7mge injectors for the fuel system.

The 5sfe injectors max out at about 160hp so if you want more you will have to get bigger ones.

98celica3, How long have you been concidering this project? Please please please know whay you are doing before you start. I have a sticky at the top for a guide. Please read all the links up there. If you had you would already know how to control boost. I not trying to be an ass I just dont want to see what happned to Jason happen to you.
