    The superchargers for this gen are known to run lean so the 7th injector adds more fuel = more HP!!!!

    This and more. The kit comes with a 7th injector to provide more fuel as the 3.4l w/ S/C tends to run lean. BigFishAllDay says they can be run without it because of the altitude here but I figured I'd do it up completely from the start. The other thing is that the kit comes with a piggyback ECU to help adjust the timing. The stock ECU can only retard so much. With the added compression and possibility of lean fuel mix, pre-det becomes a problem. Igniting the fuel prior to the piston being top-dead-center leads to really bad things happening.

    I also ordered a 2.2" pulley and a short-throw shifter kit. :)

    What are looking for in the short-throw? I don't know much about them, but I read in one article about how it can save time in shifting and kind of laughed, wondering who adds up all the extra fractions of a second over the span of driving and says "Eureka! I have saved myself 37 minutes of shift time! YEEAHHH!

    It isn't about saving time but shifting faster (really the same thing but a different perspective.) It results in less loss of forward momentum. There has been many times, particularly off-road, I felt the throw was too long and I wanted to be in a new gear quicker.

    Nice find!

    I got some sad news yesterday. The URD ECM piggyback is currently out of stock. 7-10 days before they should be ready. This puts Oct 18th in jeopardy.
