Too much fuel for a NA setup??
At the moment Ive got two walbro pumps, upgraded stainless fuel lines, aftermarket fuel rails and 42# injectors supplying fuel to my 4.6 equipped with a blower.
If I were to ditch the blower and run the engine NA, would I need to downsize all this stuff or can I keep it all installed and have my tuner adjust my tune appropriately.? Thanks guys.

RE: Too much fuel for a NA setup??
your tuner would have to cut it way back, the 42's may still be too big, but I'm not sure. I hope that pump you have is a returnless pump, I know a while back walbro had issues because they weren't returnless.

RE: Too much fuel for a NA setup??
Why do you have a dual pump setup with only 42 lb/hr injectors?
I don't think this is going to work, the stock pump is good for almost all N/A applications, and a SVT focus single setup would make do for even the most wild n/a setup (with no nitrous).
Interested in a trade for your dual pump setup? If you are, I would probably be interested in either a trade or buying it outright... I have plans this winter

RE: Too much fuel for a NA setup??
What injectors are stock for the '01 4.6 engines? I can use them and delete a pump keeping the same lines and rails. At that point I should just need new plugs and a tune and I'd be ready to roll. I don't think I can get rid of this two pump set up completely, I don't have the time or resources for such a job. Any suggestions are welcomed in regards to my situation.

RE: Too much fuel for a NA setup??
why are you pulling the blower? Whats your setup going to be n/a wise?
your fine on the stock injectors until you start getting into the motor itself. once you do a shortblock/heads etc etc your going to need to upgrade the injectors to at least 24 lb/hr. I beileve the 19s cut out around 310ish whp?
