    You dont need the injectors, but I felt a big top end increase when I did mine.


    Before.


    After.

      I don't need a new hfm or chip either. The goal here is to feel a difference. I'm not really sure what is intended by your statement.

        Voila.

        What I was trying to say is after riding in many cars with different mods the only real one that I felt was worth it was the Cam setup. The rest are just moving around the power. Or hurting it.

        Also rear end gearing is a pretty good bang for your buck.

          The 24lb/hr injectors are not needed. Just stock S52 injectors work fine. You wont need the extra fuel till you go cams. I've been told that going with the 24s actually causes the car to run a little bit richer than needed resulting in a loss of power.

          In any case, I made my numbers on stock S52 injectors.

                If they develop the tune on a dyno why can't they take the little extra time and provide a dyno graph with before/after...it really bothers me.
