95m goes kinda fast for kinda cheap
So around 8 months ago I bought a 95m for a fairly hearty price, not cheap but hey m-tax 
, this is me trying to go boost for cheap.
First step was engine management, I could have band aided but I wanted to be an MS baller, I know people hate gen 1 megasquirts, especially the DIY kits. Picked up an ms1 standalone from on here for 200$, trying to demod it and rebuild it is an a$$, but i kinda like electronics so it equals out.
Spent another 40$ on cables and 40$ on a stimulator, should be here tonight!
Next I scooped up four supra 7mge injectors for 35$, work great I think, should be 305, not running any extra ordinary boost levels
Was going to try a k03 diy setup but when a 300$ cash option for an ebay t3 arrived i couldn't pass up. For 300$ got an intercooler, turbo, piping, down pipe and some other use full stuff.
Easiest turbo to clock..ever
and thats where i stand now, ilovetacotaco should be seen soon. Somewhere inbetween this i got an innovate mtx-l wideband for 150$ thanks to amazon

Update, wired car in for ms1, can't figure out why it's only running on 2 cylinders. Hopefully I can figure this out. Parents think I've some how turned my car into a roller by pulling the stock ECU out. Any way picked up an act 4 puck unsprung clutch
I do love tacotaco
Going to get the car running Na, do injectors then big cho cho stuff.
Fmic mounting
More to come hopefully when my car isn't a 0.9 L, thank God I still can take the bus to highschool

New radiator will be bought soon. Car is running on bigger injectors, from what I read I should be able to run 10-12 psi which is enough for now. New rota concaves and 205 federals should be coming soon too

I would buy some flow force injectors. Not worth spending any time or energy on anything less then ev14 injectors. Been there, done that, wasting money for on shitty is not worth it.

its tempting, but is there any other way around it? I want 200ish rwhp and that's it. ill probably stay there for a long time, also would the ev14's even be worth installing on a stock fuel pump? Sorry, I hate to ask for advice and not like the answer

You are running an ms1. Idle control alone on that sucks, especially if you have ac. You want the best injectors you can get. You can diy the mustang injectors and save some money if you want. No you don't need to change out the fuel pump. I mean you can spend $75-100 on rx7 injectors, then another $100 sending them out to get cleaned. You will be into them for nearly $200 which is slightly less then diy ev14s. You will also idle at 12:1 afr to have your anywhere idle anywhere near smooth. I have ran stock injectors, rx7 injectors, rc550 injectors, dw1000, flowforce injectors, and id1000's. I won't touch anything less then ev14 injectors. It's not worth the time, money, or hassle. Buy good injectors once, never have to worry about them again.

You have the eBay t3 with the v-band outlet correct? If so it will require cutting of the rear shelf to make it work.

The Flow Force injectors have and are performing flawlessly for my car at 200+ whp. They really are the best option for the least amount of money unless you plan to make baller power on e85. Then you might want to consider real ID's.
My car idles between 14.4 & 14.8 and I run the stock fuel pump.

For as cheap as this build is, I'd hate to ignore RX8 injectors they work great to 200hp, and can be had as low as $130s. But I think the max Ive heard of is 225, so not much wiggle room. You might also try to find "that guy" in the classifieds who's looking to get rid of his recently cleaned RC550s for even cheaper. Or just get the FF units.
