I was pretty disappointed. Anyways costly mistake on my part but I have a new motor and some 42lb injectors hopefully to stop the lean out, I was just curious if when I replace the stock injectors with the bosch 42lbs to stop the lean out will it need a retune or will the injectors do the job without computer tune? The car has a larger cooler, modified cold side intake and a tune running 249rwkwANY info would be greatly appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Injector change always requires a tune change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I had it tuned at BPT with a sniper bullet tune gonna take it to Rob at Monsta torque for its next tune up and I was gonna get 60lb injectors but im not gonna be looking to push this motor very hard it'll need to last so I'll stick with the 42s for now. This is getting costlier and costlier by the day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The car has started overheating but the cooling system seems to be working ok, I have seen it go up to 3/4 on the temprature gauge. Also when I put my foot down sometimes the turbo seems to drop in and out. I bought the car modified, it has had a custom tune by Kalamunda performance, 60lb injectors, fuel lines and pump and an exhaust. I took the car to a mechanic last week but he couldn't fix anything.Could my motor blow if I continue driving it in its current condition? I recently had to replace the turbo after a blocked oil supply line and didn't get the car retuned, not sure if this could be causing the problem?Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
