thanks

very true if your running S5 injectors with an S4 ECU then you need to run 10 wattx10ohm resitistors inline with the S5 injectors...it would be much easier to use your old injectors with the S5 fuel rail....how much is it ported? a street ported N/A can have anywhere from 200-250hp depending on the mod and how much it is ported... if your concerned about fuel delivery then upgrade the fuel pump before you go with bigger injectors....also you may try and use 93 or 91 octane to prevent detenation.....its been heard that 13b N/A race cars use 80 octane gas an have more power gains than more octane gases..but only driving will tell..

Just keep the stock injectors then , when N/A guys get SAFCs they gain more power by leaning the power ban out....

sorrry I have no Idea, I believe that the AFM is the restrictive part in this combo, the S5 is less restrictive but you must rewire to install it, with your current setup I would say no more than 10hp......and btw stay away from glass packs they will melt in 2 months, if you get a silencer make sure it is packed with SS wool

the glass packs.... hehe i know they will melt but im dealing with a budget(very low budget) so itll be a temporary fix for the time being.... only thing that will be shitty is the loud annoying sound if and when the fiberglass melts... thanks bro....

now what do i rewire u say ?? sorry when it comes to electrical im an illegal alien

So all your doing is a intake change ??? Geez I would guess mabey a few at the wheelz... Lol you will never need a fuel pump for that. But hes right the fuel pump should be first because the injectors might actually lower the fuel pressure if thier outflowing the pump.

Get a S-AFC and lean it out 5-11% and make around
4-8 rwp more.

Keep your S4 injectors on the S5 rail. Sell your S5 injectors to me that is if thier clean. 20 bucks for 2

The N/A can handle around 220rwp mabey more with just a S-AFC and more with a T11 pump.

Bigger intake ports may well lead to decreased HP numbers. Until you test on the flowbench or dyno homebrwewd porting is a shot in the dark. BIGGER IS NOT NECCASARILY BETTER
