no, emts (and others) mean, what ECU are you using to support the different injectors?

you cant just change injectors and expect the ECU to figure it out, you need to tell the ECU what injectors you have, if non-std 370cc

your options are

remap the stock ECU

get a piggyback ECU option

get a stand alone ECU

either will let you run larger injectors. with STD ECU and anything other than 370cc injectors your car will run like ass and it's a timebomb

im surprised the tuner didnt check or ask you or refuse to tune it with std ecu and different injectors

did you tell him it had non-std injectors? did he ask what ECU

or have you just failed to list it here?

there is nothing to figure out or nothing to do your head in.

it is a simple yes / no question.

if you have a remapped ecu, aftermarket ecu, piggyback

a) get it remapped / tuned again

if you have the standard ECU

a) remap the stock ECU

b) get a piggyback ECU option

c) get a stand alone ECU

or your last option

remove the aftermarket injectors

YOU

CANNOT

RUN

NON

STANDARD

INJECTORS

WITH

A

STANDARD

UN-MODIFIED (not remapped)

ECU

yeah you dont need 440cc injectors with std turbo

the std turbo will run out of efficiency before the stock injectors do

so sell them and spend the money you get back on a piggy back or ECU remap

the piggyback or ECU remap will add a bucket load more average power everywhere and make the car heaps quicker

you should peak 200rwkw with those mods + ECU remap or piggyback

but the average power will be up heaps more over the std ECU and boost controller

plus youll have to avoid the factory boost R&R around 10psi so its a crap setup even if you just ditch the injectors and tune it

    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY  
    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
