Default Quick GReddy TT kit question...

I plan on getting the GReddy kit shortly. Now I know it comes with E-manage Blue and (from what I understand) a pre-made tune for 6 psi, to run is "safely" as they put it. I plan on getting a Walbro 255lph Fuel pump right away with the kit as well, but I won't have the cash for the AAM return fuel system right away.

Would it be safe to leave the kit at the 6 psi with the E-manage Blue tune, and the Walbro installed for a few months ? I know it won't make much more than maybe 330whp, but thats fine with me. I'm just curious about the safety.
Thanks

t0 run it safely you need to buy the ignition harness which cost $45. You need this so you can retard the timing other wise you will be running the kit on the OEM timing. I would recommend you get the ignition harness and get the car custom tuned.

At stock boost the kit runs very rich so adding the walbro will just make it worse if you do not tune it.

Ok, so does it come with a tune already on it? Or not?
I don't mind getting it tuned. I just wanna know if it'll be safe as is with the walbro for a month or two.

Yes the stock kit does come with a tune however it will run the rich for safety precautions. The factory fuel pump can handle a stock greddy TT kit you don't really need the walbro unless you are looking for higher whp #'s

If that's the case, what can you run with a walbro and the e-manage blue and a proper tune? more than like 330whp?
Thanks

With walbro, emanage and a tune plus a timing solution (ignition harness or J&S Safeguard) you run around 8 psi and arounf 400RWHP

Yeah, I was planning on going from the kit + Walbro... to the UTEC + Return fuel kit + aqua mist (think bigbri's setup for stock block power) to make 500ish whp.

But I simply won't have the cash for anything beyond the tt kit and walbro up front.

So I can get around 400whp with the walbro and a decent tune? That's awesome. Thanks guys. I dunno if I'll run 400... maybe 370 to be safe. I want the motor to last haha.

Yeah I plan on challenging the stock block quite a bit
I think if bigbri could do 500whp on 91 octane with a TT + aquamist and a Unichip. A UTEC, aquamist and 93 octane could do the same. But alas, this will all come later this summer.
