Also click on the titles listed below in the "see also" section(located at bottom of the "above" linked page) when you click on the link above.

Edit: your idle speed seems a bit low and should be closer to 750 if not just a "tad" higher.

Below link will also be helpful.

There's no reason nowadays to have leaking injectors when reputable companies like witchhunter performance can redo injectors for about 20 bucks an injector.
