not for taking over. Whybin hell would you want to place the injectors farther away from the engine?

They are additionals. A lot but you would use something like a REBIC(right?) for additional fuel control.

That's probably for a monster turbo engine or something.

Although they did use the crappy psuedo wanne be ss hose sleeves. I wonder if it's even FI fuel hose or Carb since the pressure requirements are different.

If I used it I would block off the proimaries there and add like 550's for the secondaries in that along with my original 550's in the real spots.

second thought. Maybe it's for the lazy people which don't feel like removing the UIM to get at the injectors?

Although you'll still need a FPR and PD.

Additional injectors. It's usually a good setup, the injectors on this particular one are not angled nicely with the airflow (they are at a 90 deg. angle with the runners).
BOOSTD 7 (i think that's spelt correctly - he's the webmaster/owner of this forum) has a nice setup but I lost a pic of it, maybe you can find one!

Additional injectors are the crude, old-fashioned way of doing things. With the price of aftermarket computers lower than ever, there's no excuse for not having the right injectors in the right location.

Wouldn't those also help to fill your vac hoses with gasoline?
