So my friends rx7 caught fire a few days ago- a fuel line popped off at 14o mph- good times. I had an extra shell so hes in luck and for it i got a turbo, header, 3in hks ti exhaust(fd fitted to fc) down pipe wastegate and wastegate piping. I just finished building and porting my motor. I have a pretty good streetport- I dont think its mild. the turbo is a 60-1 t4. So my question is when I bolt this all up- at 10psi and with my street port how much fuel enrichment do i need- i have a warlboro 255 pump- would a FPR at 60 psi be sufficient? also what do i need to do with the timing- retard- advance- I need a lil help. My goal is 300hp- not at 10 psi but thats the spring in the wastegate- so thats what ill run till i get injectors and a fuel comp- Thanks.

on the pulley 5mm would be about 5 degrees. the distance between the trialing and leading is 15 degrees if you divide that space into 3 even sections that would be how much 5 degrees is.
as far as fuel bumping the presure up will not be enough fuel fot that turbo. you will need bigger injecotrs and something to control them with. dont forget to upgrade the fuel pump.
a 60-1 at 10 psi should make over 300 whp

There is barely enough fuel for the stock turbo, let alone a bigger one. You need at least bigger secondaries and some way to control them. You will blow your motor in a hurry if you try to run it the way you have described.

You'll need more than just secondaries. I run 4 720cc injectors with a walboro and am using a BNR hybrid turbo(specs in sig). My injectors run in the high 80% duty cycle range @ 310rwhp (14psi). If I were you I would just wait and do it right and not hurt the motor. Patience will save you in the long run.
