By the way Akuma.... Doug will tell you that you don't need a wideband..... and the e85 tune with the install of my Walbro and PTE 1000 injectors was $275 or $300 giving him so much money lately i can't remember.... that's with dyno runs and everything.
somebody else was asking about the wideband. i was just helping out

that is correct, im running it and i am ready for an upgrade but i dont have the cash to do so. also plus1 on the getting a twin disc . if i could i would do that first. im not sure if you race everet, but if you can try and hold off on spending the cash and save a lil extra. i wish i did. as far as the clutch goes i mean. carlos has a green also i think he was going for an 11 sec run and he did it early this year i cant seem to cut a 60ft better than 1.8 partly due to wheel spin and clutch .

As far as having problems with the green , No, but my car has another issue that bugs the hell out of me. p0172 system too rich bank 1. that **** comes on like 4x a day sometimes, dont know what else to do but save some cash and buy a brand new O2 sensor. but im sure that the green turbo has nothing to do with it. also there have been people with a twin disc that daily drive and have large turbo kits like 35R. i guess it all depends on how well your car holds up and if your tuner can make your parts work well.

I am with this 100%.. Just bump it up. I'm at 1000 and thinking about bumping up.. then again, I have a 35r.. but still.. we ran out of fuel and had to limit myself with 1000's. =\

Hey dudes.. if you remember back to our conversation at Erics, did we decide that FIC was a good injector brand? I forgot if we were only talking about PTE or FIC too. I'm thinking of upping to 1250's and FIC's are going for 400.. which isn't bad at all.

Oh trust me, I've already emailed buschur about the double pump set up.. I didn't do headstuds yet but REALLY REALLY want to.. especially if I'm about to add a couple more horses with the fuel upgrade.. Oh and yea, I've had a sparktech ignition in there for about a year.. non-cdi but it fixed up my ignition break up issues..
