So, I broke down and put in an SQ-Trim Charger. The shop just called and said they weren't getting the HP gains they had hoped right away, but are thinking they'll have to play around withe plug gaps/timing? At this point, they were not happy with the 310HP it was getting.... Neither am I! A couple of weeks ago I dyno'd at 256HP to the wheels, with a cobra intake, TF heads and CAI. Now, with the charger 310??!! Does that sound right? Is gap/timing going to make that much of a difference??? I need someone to help set my "REALISTIC" expectations....

 

depends on how many lbs of boost it is generating??? also what heads and cam are on the car?? injectors??.. there is only so much stock components can handle

 

TF Heads, stock injectors, small cam, not really sure as it was already in the car. When I had it dyno'd they thought it was a "baby-cam" whatever that means. It lumps a little, but not major. It does sound different than stock.

 

your stock injectors will limit along with stock fuel pump and regulator how much boost you can run

 

Hmmm well the regulator and pump were both upgraded. So, maybe my concern is a little pre-mature? I was hoping I'd end up close to 350RWHP!

 

not on stock 19 lbs injectors!! the duty cylcle will be maxed out and if you do hit 350 you most likely will be running extremely lean= kaaaboooooooom!!!![:@]..you need to upgrade injectors

 

yeah you might want to get some injectors!

 

Ok - So called back the installer. We're going 30# injectors. That should do the trick eh?

 

with a fmu but when i go boosted i am gonna just run some 42's and skip the tuning problems that the fmu's can cause.just my 2 cents since u are ordering them i would do some 42's and call it done.

 

how much boost you running? might want to get 42lbers
