very nice its coming along. o and if the injectors were off of an 05 srt-4 then they are stage 1 injectors. no such thing as stage 0 injectors on 04-05 srt-4, because they all came stock with them

Really?? I knew the injectors in 05 were larger, i just wasnt aware they were the stage 1's...good to know though. So i assume that means i'll need to set my baseline fuel pressure lower then usuall since the stage 1 injectors are larger?

Well after thinking about it long and hard, I've decided against going Megasquirt for my fuel managment, at least for now. So now i need to buy the return line kit from AaronNeon and decided on which RRFPR i want, either Cartech or Chillfactor. Once thats done i can go ahead and buy the AEM UEGO A/F gauge ($280!!!), my oil pressure gauge, and get my oil pump and PT clutch then i'll be almost ready to start.

Oh and does anyone know what a good price for a used Mopar Borla 2.5" Exhaust would be? I'm about to buy one from someone on Srtforums and i need a good offer price (they sell for $350 shipped/new on MP).

hey man just take that money and buy yourself a wide band o2 gauge it worth it. It will give you you peace of mind knowing that your afr is good and if you dicide too tune your car yourself it will be way easier too do.

Ok, so I've read that if you have a wideband A/F gauge (like the AEM that i'm getting) you can tune the car with the gauge and a laptop...this may be a tremendously stupid question, but how exactly would you tune your car with just a gauge and a laptop?

Oh and i still want to do megasquirt, i just dont see the point in running a system with that much control when i'm only going to run 8-10psi...maybe if and when i rebuild the bottom end and crank up the boost i'll buy it, but i dont see much reason in doing so right now...
