uhmmmmm......Thanks.... not sure how to respond here...

I will say my kids are all grown up and graduated from college... so this is a old fart project for me.... When I was your age, I couldn't have even afforded the car... Much less a Tom Henry Racing Edition...

Sorry about the seats bro. I was thinking about putting some CTS-V seats in mine, but I'm not sure if they'll fit. I did some research and it looks like they're 3-4K.

If you can't find anything else here's an idea.

Got a contact for ordering those, or are they from the Skipette collection...???

Thanks. I'll be seeing a TT setup this weekend that I'm concerned with. And they're running 80lb. It's in the PM I sent you.

I know I was warned about going over 93 or 96lb injectors with the factory computer, have you started to take that into consideration?

I have started to look into this guy here.... seems to be very reliable and will help take care of any issues while running larger injectors without upgrading to a new computer.

has anyone ever used these? Bruce?

I'll take the time to respond to the pm later when I get home... Corey and I talked about it at lunch... With proper heat shielding though, it might be ok.... and are those injectors 80 lbs at 43 psi, or at 60 psi... If they are 80 at 43 psi, then the effective change should be about 93 lb/hr at 60 psi, or thereabouts...
