    Any of you guys running the bigger injectors with the adapter harnesses have any issues? I know you are @loginfailed
    I am having issues finding anyone somewhat close to me that will even attempt to reflow my stock injectors.

    Also I went down to the beach yesterday and hit a peak of 7.7 lbs at sea level :D

    I see a lot of exciting things in this thread, methanol injection, better fan clutch? Oh boy I am excited what comes of all this. Moar money to spend!

    Hope you all have a happy and safe Easter

    I agree, the throttle body set screws can be easily stripped if not careful. I found that my hex bit fit pretty loosely in there, but a T8 torx bit fits quite nicely.

    On my TB the butterfly was sticking a bit when fully closed. @Roostfactor showed me this pic where he had removed the plastic cover on his throttle body.

    E2B68BB4-F7B2-4D67-B82B-F4AF65FB4327.jpg

    On mine the screw was way too far out so the plastic gear had no way of touching it. After adjustiing this other screw, I tapped the mounting holes for the cover for some M5 stainless bolts. So if I have to get in there again I can just undo the screws vs drilling out rivets.

    No issues with the adapter harnesses. :thumbsup:

    Sweet, so is the injection rate boost referenced or what? How does it know how much to inject?

    Control box to switched power has low and high level adjustments. They have a suggested starting point. Then experimet to see whats best. Fine tuning can be done when on the dyno.

    Just curious if the adapter harnes made things not as reliable in terms of the injectors working

    Sweet, I think some bigger injectors will pair nicely with a smaller pulley for me.

    Awesome, good to know! I'll check with him here in the coming weeks or in like a month or so. I think at the end of the day I may actually have to end up having someone tune this thing for me. I took a look at all the different tables available for modification and it was all mostly above my head.

    Got my meth injection in. Fixed a leak. Something isnt right and im out of time for the day. I thought my pump had a bad ground but that wasnt it. Pump starts injecting upon power. Makes me think i tapped the wrong wire on my MAF. Hey, 1 in 5 wires good odds. Not good enough.

    Alright, I just received this from Scott


    “Hi Tim,


    AFR is good – but we are maxing out the UCon adaptives at WOT.

    Are you sure you hooked up the 7th injector correctly?

    The UCon is failsafe and will adapt if the 7th is not properly connected…

    The idle and cruise adaptives are dead nuts..”

    The pic below is how I wired the 7th

    Does That look correct? Is there a way for me to test it?

    I mean, if I’m maxing out the UCON, I’m assuming it’s not working.
