    a/f gauge is pointless....u need a Fuel Pressure gauge and maybe a EGT........get rid of A/F.

      Fuel pressure is a good one, i'd say def if you go forced induction and need some fuel upgrades (attn: you will!)
      Boost is mandatory.
      I'd say get Oil temp, maybe egt.

              57 lb/hr? HOLY **** DUDE.

              ARHU 203A: Are you kidding me, collegiate level, 3 credits, R/P-F/A. Smith, J. MWF 9:00 - 9:50 AM. Armory 0117.

              We don't have adjustable fuel PSI regulators for 3.8's. Yes, I know that you will go to ZZP and tell me that, infact, ZZP and Casper's make them. But it is a measley 1-2 +/- over stock, and the computer will compensate against your adjustment.

              You need an FMU (increases fuel pressure in relation to boost), and they do work great (most FI people here have them). But there are many people who say that an FMU is a bandaid, and that you need some real form of fuel setup. The bigger injectors should take care of this, but you'll have one helluva time with ones that big (almost 3 times as big as stock!) and the stock tune. Yes, I know that you said that you can get dyno tuning for your 97. But I'll doubt it, the shop's prolly bs'ing you, unless you're going to see Ed Wright himself. So ... if you want injectors 3x stock, maybe you need a DFI system?

              Just my thoughts, correct me if I'm wrong.

                ditto on how your going to tune 57#.

                i am not even considering them for my blown ls1. SVO 42's should be pleanty, (i hope)

                  you know the tune from tbryne? im sending my PCM in so i can be the "giggy"pig and they can do others so the computer will know about 57 lb/hr and EVERY THING im doing im hoping that cuts down on the trouble with big injectors

                  i can always get a MAF-AFC to, but i talked to Tiago and asked him about 400000000 "?"s about this he siad if i got PCM tuning to go with the biger ones,

                  i was going with the 42.5, but now that i have programing i should be ok

                        none really.

                        I was being serious in wishing you luck, it will take one good tuner to be able to dial i a large set of injecors, on a motor/computer setup, that is not commonly run on, so it may take a few tries to get the idle, and part throttle tuning perfect. Unless your able to get the car dyno tuned by this guy.

                          i might go for a dyno tun, cause after they do the PCM its locked to others, lol, there in canada i might take a road trip in 2005, un less there are huge bugs i will be running the 1/4 as long as i get my LSD in, basically this 30 days home is to ge the car running and find the bugs and ill have till 2005 to fix them lol
