Thanks for all the comments, someone did recommend bigger injectors, so I'm glad I asked.
As for the alarm, I went with the compustar because of the turbo timer, auto start and, paging system. I paid $650 installed with the ignition kill from IllTech in Tacoma. They gave me great service and were easy to work with. I did have one mishap with the alarm though; I was taking pictures of the inside of the car with the engine running and decided to get one from the back seat. I closed the front door and the f***in thing locked me out. I decided to wait three hours for my wife to get home, for I didn't want to pay the $100+ to have someone unlock it for me. I later called compustar and they said I had it in some mode which I think I've fixed.

I was implying that usually around there you should start looking for some. I wasnt claiming my car has 370+
I believe Chris is still on stock inj. when he did 374, right, but he has an AMS fuel rail...
Are you referring to VIII's and IX's? I am somewhat curious of how some are logging the IDC? I assume through evoscan. Reason I ask is because I hit 98% IDC in my car and I know for a fact my IDC is correct. I know past 6000rpm my IDC went up alot after I got rid of my MBC maybe thats why? I know many of the 3port setups can hit 100% on stock turbo. Not sure on MBC really as I didn't log it as much.

I changed all my stuff when I installed my Magnus, cause I picked up Denso 720's and installed them, so I wont know when or if my stock inj. would have been maxed. But when I put down 340 on my VIII TME w/ stock manifold I didnt run out of fuel on pump and this was on 22psi and a walbro...obviously...
I only turn that off in cars without cats that wouldnt pass anyway. All cars with a cat (whether stock or HFC) it stays on though I give the owner the choice of disabling it at the time I tune if they are reasonably certain they will put a testpipe on in the future.
I did notice this IDC on cold nights when my boost was holding strong to 20psi at 7k. Just makes me curious. I am moving on to a 3port here and from what I have talked to Bryan about I am already out of injector.

I know another thing to consider is for some reason the stock injectors are scaled at 513cc. Is that there for safety margin purposes? I find it odd that over 100% can be logged because in all actuality anything over 100% is static. I have always been told anything over 90% on atleast pintle style injectors can be a little unsafe even though it does work? I really don't want to swap out mine but atleast in my case I have seen quite a few people upgrading injectors with similiar mods: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...light=ARC+dyno My car is almost a spitting image of his expect I run 92oct to his 91oct.
