Also, do the injectors not need an upgrade at all?
It's not needed under about 7psi's which should be around 450-460rwhp. 500rwhp is about 10-11psi's if I'm guessing right lol. But if you have it makes tuning alot easier if boosting between 6-7psi's. Since our issue won't be upping the fuel flow but instead lowering the fuel flow. As Tracy has already confirmed that it feeds the motor with way to much fuel without a tune. And after a tune and things still aren't spot on I'd rather be running rich instead of lean . And the injectors seem not to be a issue as of yet since it's spraying strong with the new pump and no tune.

I don't know about the 9mpg but I'm getting between 19-20 now. But it's because it's so much fun having all my mods plus being boosted. I have Happy Feet lmao. If I drove like a normal person I could get the 24-26mpg I got during breaking lol. O and I after 1yr and 5 month have crossed into the 10,000 mile mark. I'm driving the car alot more since the build and I do stay in the south with the nice weather.

In Jacksonville now and want to make the trip to Tracy's new shop so bad. Drove the car down here and now that I'm boosting 6psi's (with a wacky tune still lol). It's a blast on the highway and you want to talk about turning heads! When they hear that exhaust rumble and turbo at a constant spool I get looks. Had a few try to catch up to get a better look lol. Just love this car. Thanks again Tracy!!!

Just got my updated tune from Vince. About to load it up, crank it up, then light them up in smoke lol. Will report back soon! And just a FYI the car pulls good and AFR's are great until I hit about 3.5-4 psi's. That's when things get wacky at, car starts to get lean.
