MR.NOOB

 

nice, i just installed my RB headers thursday.... Major difference! I love em... Im about to install a S-afc, and a wideband O2 to help control the fuel. I recommend getting an Rtek or something to control the fuel so that those 550's you installed dont just simply richen the mixture.

 

first thing, learn to spell the word "what" properly.

 

First off, you'll need a way to control your new, larger injectors. I agree with the suggestion of an Apexi SAFC. Without it, you'll run rich and bog. This also involves some dyno time or a wideband if you want to DIY.
Finish up your tuneup with fluids: coolant, oil, trans.
You already have a good start with the full exhaust and that's where most of your power gains will come from.
Tires will make a big difference but depends on what compromise of life/traction you are looking for.

Just enjoy it for a while to get a feel for it and decide what behavior needs to be changed. Then you can come back for more parts.

 

Just so you know, the 1st gen came with 680's not 550... But looks like a good start.

 

why you want 680cc injectors on a NA?They run crazy rich from the factory,in fact you get a extra few horses and a couple more pounds of torque just by leaning the map out.

 

what's next? put some stock 460cc injectors back in the secondary rail.

 

WHUT WHUT WHUT.. dick # 1
1st gen did com with 550 injectors.dick #2
You ******** are no help...just dicks...

Oh boy..
Hey stain...u come here asking for help and start insulting ppl right off the bat?
Go away. You know more that we do anyways so figure it out yourself.

Since when has people telling you facts no help?

1st gens came with 680cc, Turbo 2nd Gens came with 550cc.

 

I hate these kinds of people.... Go away now.

 

Blakj, you sir. Are a jackass. But, on a serious note. Put 460's back in and tune with the safc. You will gain more power. But what do I know? I'm just some noob who plays mechanic.

 

To the OP, you gotta grow some thicker skin around here; there are a lot of ******** on this forum for sure, and I can be one of them as well! To everyone else, ease up on the guy; we're all trying to learn here and a little constructive criticism should be in order.

So, with that said.....
The 1st gens did come with 680cc injectors, the turbo II's came with 550cc injectors. But we are splitting hairs here, the real point everyone is trying to make is that you need to be able to control the larger injectors. I have heard that at high RPMs the N/A's can actually get a little lean under hard throttle. With bigger injectors you can counter this, but without fuel control you will be bogging down the whole time.

Good luck, welcome to the Forum!

 

I don't know why this annoys the **** out of me, but its header not headers

 

hay wuts goin on?

 

Wuts up wit choo dawg? Fer realz.

 

Wow, what an idiot..
