95% of aftermarket computers are like this,

Ack...I just reread my post, it doesn't seem to clear to what I originally meant.

What I am wondering is, if you change out the injectors, is there a setting for size in the LT8?

So if you change the size in program, does it change the values for the fuel map or would you have to reduce flow manually?

No there is not a injector size selection as such,
there is a blanket adjustment called mixtrim which when set to -10% will take 10% fuel out of the while curve, so if you replace your injectors that are 20% larger reduce this by 20% and check mixtures and fine tune from there.

Getting clearer now thanks!

So is there any limit (or is just the mixtrim function) limited to <100% values?

So basically, if I am running 550cc injectors and I specify 1000cc injectors I can tune them down initially (presuming some number ~50% I'm not feeling math inclined at the moment...) to allow for greater ease in the future should I swap out the 550's with 4x720cc's or greater?

Thanks for your advice,

Joe

The sky is the limit, the mix trim's range is -99% to + 99%

so yes you fit larger injectors and work out the figure and go from there,

you dont have to use the mix trim function, you can re programe all the load points and leave the mix trim on 0% if you like.

Basically anything you want to do you can do,

If you didn't commit yourself early enough, you didn't recieve an invoice. Did you subscribe to the list? I know Brandon left everyone on, even the people that got cut off for being too late.

You had to email brandon directly saying you were in, and giving him precise details about your setup. Then he updated the list of people every day the last week saying "these people were in"

Did you get that email from the list, naming everyone who was in? If not you werent fully subscribed. If you were getting that email, than you didnt directly email him when it came time to commit 100%.

Then there must have been a miscommunication somewhere,or an email was never sent to Brandon when he started taking the real deal orders. Sit tight though, another group buy should be soon.

Yeah.. I think everyone jumped on after we hit 12 people. But it was sitting at 9 or 10 for half the time the GB was open. I don't feel sorry for the people that were waiting for the extra 65 bucks to come off.... (but I do for the peple trying to scrounge the money )

Yeah, assuming were talking about the same car, this guy has been around for a while . DirectFreak took these pictures down in Florida (where you are as well), so I assume theres only 1 silver -SE with a 12A running 10 seconds down in that area .

12A Runs 10 Second 1/4 Mile
