Well I just found / installed a set of 60lb inj.s that have a very similar spray patter to the stockers. :-D
Now I just need to put the intake on and powder coat the new t-housing, and put on the exhaust and I should be ready for take two!
Wish me luck! lol

to step up the inj. just been seeing what it can do..
Gonna need a slightly larger injector for 800. Just read over this thread again... and of course it goes without saying, but you've done a fantastic job. Can't wait for video.

from email correspondence.
410hp 378lb on 8.7 psi and my crappy 42lb inj.
I just received my 65lb bosh inj. And a sheet metal short runner intake is in the works.
I'm planning on hitting the dyno again this summer with my new upgrades and 18psi.
FieroPhrek working on that ls4 swap for 18 years and counting now. 18 years!!!!! LOL

530 whp is greater than 312

Dude you have a hard-on for railing on the LQ1... however, even Matt Hawkins turbo'd properly tuned LQ1 eventually suffered a disintegrating timing chain tensioner after 60K and FerrariFan's GT30 LQ1 wasted a con rod bearing after boosting to 17psi without retuning..

Given MrSleeves all out build I wonder where the next failure point will be...


<edit = tensioner not timing chain failed>
