    my buddy has a m42 turbo and he is running 36 pound injectors on stock DME with no chip, no 02 sensor, just running in limp mode & it runs fine pushing 8-10 pounds daily. Just highly adjusted mass air flow meter and he gets shit for gas mileage, but it still runs fine & hard. Why won't mine even start? I figure the difference between 36pound & 42 pound wouldn't make it not start.

    only need air fuel and spark do you have each of them?

    Well his car has an M42 and he specifically said he has not put the chip in yet.

    Definitely not going to start with those injectors in there!

    As far as I know Motronic doesn't like anything over 30lbs injectors. If somebody who knows for sure could clear this up that'd be good. I've never looked into it personally, my turbo build has always been intended for standalone.
