I have a 1990 2.2 L4 cavy and i wanted to know if you could ajust the fuel flow like increase it to a cuple more times the norm. because i put two turbos and now the air/fuel ratio is of and it runs kinda bad. i wanted to know if i could tell it to increase fuel flow or just do somthing.
thanks all

If you have two turbos, how did you do it. Cause i want to turbo my 95 cavy, so tell me how you did it, and how much did it cost you.

2 turbos in a 1990 cav.....kinda wasteful I think, and almost impossible. My question is why in a 1990?

ok one on the right front fender then one on the left front fender then go to a muffler shop they custome your exauht for about 500 i got both
the turbos from one of my freinds for about 3 each then on a 90 cavalier the intake is diferent than newer ones it looks like a carburated intake anyways answer my question on the fuel flow

wait a minute, you said you put 2 turbos on and you were having fuel problems, Now its " I haven't put them on because theres fuel problems". Which is it?
Personally I think it's all :bs:

I am not aware of any way to adjust the fuel flow. This car does not have a Mass Air Flow Sensor. All parameters are fixed for a stock intake and TBI. Perhaps a different/larger fuel injector. I would recommend keeping the turbos and getting another car to put them on. And since you sound young I will add the FIRST RULE OF HOT RODDING: NEVER hot rod the car you drive to work.
I learned this on the hard way.
Good Luck.

teheheheh.....
Honestly Lexxxx, you need to learn a LOT more about engines before you start turbocharging an engine.
If you want to increase the fuel intake, you will have to have the computer reprogrammed or you will have to install a separate fuel management system.

Shimmy,
Don't comment or help in this thread.
You don't even know how to check your own coolant level let alone tell people how to adjust their fuel system.

More fuel without more air is a waste of gas and will make you car run hot. If you get a bigger Throttle Body the computer will automatically adjust the air/fuel ratio to stay consistent.
