how much boost are you running? Depending on the amount of boost you are running and how much power you are making off the spray, you may be able to go with 30's (unless you put the injetors over 95% cycle duty, then i wouldnt try using them with a dry kit).


btw i notice in your sig you dont have tb/heads/intake listed...i presume you are still using the stock ones? If so, id at least do a quick port job on the lower intake as its a bottle neck only flowing 130cfm... just a fyi.

Thanks for the info......the upper and lower are ported stock pieces.....stock heads....stock cam......6 psi.....After much debate, I think it seems to be a bad idea to try both, especially with a dry kit, so I will probably sell the kit to pay for parts. I do plan on upgrading tb/intake/heads eventually, but I thought I should hit the fuel system first. Does this sound the best way to go, or should I go another route, like intake/tb/fuel sytem/heads or what? My lack of an aftermarket intake seems to be coming up alot. Thanks again for letting me pick your brains.

Whoa!!My car looks almost identical to yours!Except under the hood.I also have a powerdyne.Mine is the 12psi version and im seeing about 10psi at full boost.I also have TFS stage1 cam,Gt 40 heads,edelbrock rpm intake,accufab 75mm throttlebody,30pound inj,etc, etc.I have expieremented with different cams,intakes,injector combos and have found this to be the best.Good for 11.22 with limited traction.On street tires the car will break them loose at 80mph!I will take some pics later and post them here.You will shit when you see how similar the cars look.
I would go with fuel system first just to be safe.Like 255 inline or intank.30 pounders,kirban or some other regulator.Thats the exact setup i have and mine stays nice and rich.Then do heads,intake,cam.Ofcourse heads are going to bring the most power.Intake will help a bunch aswell.I really like my RPM.For heads GT 40s work nice for me cause i found them used for very cheap.If you have the cash AFR's are the only way to go.Anywase,goodluck and hella nice car.

Thanks man, I can't wait to see some pics of your ride. I think that sounds like a good plan to follow. I am planning on sticking with the stock cam because I like how the car seems stock until I mash on the loud pedal . It is not too loud and I feel I can drive anywhere with the a/c on and no problems. My car idles nice and smooth, yet runs pretty decent. Thanks

Would 36#s' be too big and hurt performance, or should I just get 30#'s. The reason I ask is someone just put up 36#'s for sale here, and now I am not sure if I should get them or buy new 30#'s.
