Where did they recommend you install those 2 extra injectors? I know adding additional injectors is a common way to add extra fuel, but I think I'd rank it least desirable of the three methods I can think of. (The three methods being 1. larger injectors 2. FMU/rising rate FPR, 3. Add. injectors.)

yeah, ur right about those mandrel bends, my bad, but either way, with the pipes made the way they make them with nice bends and powder coated, it results in a more expensive kit that to some looks better.

ya thats the reason im running without them, instead a larger fmu disc with inline pump, she is nice and cool, which means plenty of fuel and pegged rich on a/f meter.

I wouldn't trust that AF meter... they are not very accurate... most only read between 12.5-15.5:1... they consider 13.5-15 in stoich and anything over 15lean... anything under 13.5 goes rich but only to a point and as the exhaust temp rises the AFR tends to lean out while the gauge reads pig rich.

Get a wideband for like 300 bucks and be for sure!!

Best advice anyone who's doing fuel tuning can get. It's the best money you can spend if you plan on tuning AFR. No question, no doubt, no joke. Accurate to 0.1 AFR and can read much richer and much leaner.

yo nice set up..... you should get some flat black paint (Heat resistance) paint and paint the header/turbo manifold... that would make it look even better... and the blow off valve... second one sounds nice... the first one... kinda sounded like the blow off valve is not big enough to handle the pressure..... because it's still sounds like it's still releasing pressure as you let go of the gas.... but still cool sound... got to take some more sound clips... i just love the sound of blow off valves...

Definitely significantly larger than a stock Evolution FMIC.
