100% subscribed to see what you do for the fueling portion.



Dumped the stock Y pipe setup yet? That stock crossover pipe is only 1-5/8"!
Plan is twin turbo in the future, so exhaust stays mostly stock until I get to making up some turbo manifolds. Unless a set of Tri-Ys happen to pop up cheap...

I've been spending way too much lately, probably going to take a month off working on the car before I pull the trigger on a set of LS coils and EV12 injectors. Maybe I'll find a decent starter timing map by then.


Anyone with EFI experience - would it be a bad idea to take it to have spark dyno tuned, only to take it back for fuel later? Do they charge by the hour, or a certain amount for a full tune?
