after carefull thought and many wise words from the ppl here in turbobricks i have decided to stray from the twin turbo setup and go with a holset hx35 turbo. what kind of fuel management would i need for somthing like that. would ECU chiping be a good idea and where can i get a chipset for the LH2.4.
i would like to run at least 20psi of boost with a turbo VX cam set. any pointers would be helpfull
thanx

ditch the VX cam for that kind of power
chips PROBABLY wont do what you want them to, you'll need a mildly built motor and EMS

best pointer out there is to the search button

I'm thinking it needs to have a HUGE red arrow pointing towards it.

If you wanna chip, look for frpe92's group buy thread. It's pretty new and shows promise.
Else, megasquirt it. Then you can fine tune everything.

MikeJr recently made 320rwhp on a chipped LH2.4 car... (+T obviously). He was running alot more boost than 20psi though, plus he was on race gas. -- http://forums.turbobricks.com/showthread.php?t=68493
I too agree that you most likely won't hit a desired HP level relying on a stock computer (chipped or not). An aftermarket fuel/timing controller would definately be in order to obtain maximum performance. I would look in to MegaSquirt... You will have tons of posts about it on this board. If you go into the AFTERMARKET ENGINE MANAGEMENT section you will most likely find more information on that.
Also, searching does help. Don't mean to sound like a dick or a broken record :) You might try looking up: LH2.4 chips, 2.4 chipping, 300hp, megasquirt, .. etc.
