Default It's going good.....

as to how much I've spent, I'm afraid to add it all up
So far, at least $5000, but considering that includes a new motor in addition to the big turbo, it's not that bad.

I'm in process of creating some sort of write-up on what I did.

I'm trying to get a feel for how much boost I can safely run, I think the 440 injectors will be a limiting factor.

Default eh...

Hey John... I think you are right about the injectors, I know PES said my 2.0 was pretty much maxed out with the 440cc injectors in my car. I am going to do new injectors soon. If I can't get my current setup to work how I want it, I will go with a different turbo(new gt series ball bearing), external wastegate, and definately a AEM system. I was thinking AEM race box.... but now Lucas mentions this new Autronics unit, which might also be a good way to go.

Default Would you be interested in going in on some larger injectors?

Accel makes some 48 lb (500cc) injectors, and MSD makes some 50 lb (525cc) injectors.

I got my chip from PES, and Tony told me that noone makes injectors larger than 440, but that's just not true. You just have to know where to look
I'm hoping I can talk him into making some software for larger injectors.

Default oh its gonna happen, soon.

he found larger injectors for my car.... car is headed up there soon(this week). I'm not letting them send my car back untill it's tuned 100%. I was hoping to get the IBE chipswitch too... so I can run multiple programs, street, race(100+ octane), and maybe a mild boost program also.

Default Any idea what kind of injectors?

Tony mentioned something about getting WRX injectors to fit with some modifications, but the injectors I found should be a straight drop in.
