I noticed that places like KPM motorsport etc sell performance packages with just the tune and the flash tuner. No injectors, so this leads me to believe that replacing the injectors isn't necessary to a point. Anyone tuned their car with the flash tuner?Anyone know if you NEED to replace injectors? yeah, not to sure. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will cost you but you will know what you have. I flash tuned a BA XR6T with only a air filter and cat done without injectors and ran about 240rwkw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
