Ive put together a turbo set-up for my ef and i was wondering if i could get away without running an inter cooler At the moment my set-up consists of a

t70 turbo
tuned length manifold
38mm waste gate 8psi spring
fuel pressure regulator
boost controller
42lb injectors

Is this enough stuff to make my car turbo friendly or do I have to run a inter cooler as well

sorta pointless in my books going with outone. you will lose a percentage of power that would be there if you ran an intercooler.

At low boost you'll be fine..
The master Power T70 compressor is quite big and efficiant, it won't be heating the air too much..
There are many T70's around.. Be aware of the T70's on E Bay..
I hope you have tune sorted!!
50/50 water /metho cools intake charge well, using washer bottle..

Are you using std EEC ?? Trouble with std EEC ? They don't read boost and std injectors are way too small...
Atleat drop timing back to say 2* before starting.. Or detonation comes on quick..

No.. You'll be better off buying a Stinger ECU or EMS 8860 in either stand alone or piggy back configuration.. They have built in 3 bar MAP sensor and fully programable.. Leave std EEC for auto, fuel pump etc ..
