I have never heard anything bad about their injectors, one thing to keep in mind is that the 42 lb/h rating is at the standard 43.5 psi (3 bar) pressure, at 40 psi they will flow 40.5 lb/h...

So just got to hook it all up. id like a few extra things but not sure ill have the money before i get done. Hey quick question cliff. if i had to get 2 or 3 gauges what are the most important ones? i know one im getting is a wide band, out side of that i dont know whats a better thing to monitor accurately oil pressure is important boost pressure fuel pressure. if you could give me a top 3 in most important order id be a happy camper.

A wideband O² system is essential, it will tell you if there are any fueling problems.

A real oil pressure gauge would be nice to have, though oil temperature might be a better choice.

For the #3 slot I would have one of these, in no special order: oil temperature (or pressure if temp is #2), intake air temperature (as close to as possible or in the intake manifold) or exhaust gas temperature (both banks).

A boost gauge is entertaining and can provide support for your bragging, however doesn't really tell you much of anything about how well the engine is doing...
