Cameron02 Member 164 Member For: 12y 1m 8d Posted 13/03/13 11:15 AM Share Posted 13/03/13 11:15 AM I have a 2003 BA. To save some coin I am planning to do most of my mods myself and then drive the car 16km to the tuner. What do people think? Will it be possible to drive the car to the tuner. Car currently has the factory tune.Mods done:T56Monza intercoolerWater sprayUnder Batery PipeHigh volume fuel pump2nd intake for air box and K&N filterMods to do just before driving to tuner:Injectors 60lb Siemens DekkaTurbine housing with port and flapper modGarrett 12psi actuatorVennom 5inch 100 cell cat pipeAt the tuner:Valve springsSupply X3 and tuneI'm pretty sure that if I take it easy the turbine housing, cat and actuator should be fine. But I am a little worried that the car might not run with the injectors in. Any body tried it before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drive it there and get him to change the injectors for you, it shouldn't cost more than $100 Edited 13/03/13 11:19 AM by Bonjaz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
