I would consider upgrading the fuel system as well because the two work togeter. There needs to be a harmonious ratio of air to fuel mixture depending on the set up of your engine. If you upgrade air intake but not the fuel system, you may be running lean and actully see less performance. You can stop by or call an engine performance shop and tell them what your buying and see what adjustments they recomend for the fuel system. You may just end up needed to retune and that's all. 1398spdr 01-23-2005, 05:31 PM yea, i was thinkin of doin the fuel system anyway for future purposes, i guess ill just do all that together, take a day off and get it done...... vertstanggt 03-15-2005, 07:07 PM You don't have to do a fuel upgrade with a throttle body cause it's not a huge differance. It's simply less restrictive such as putting in a cold air intake or a cone filter. The computer will compensate for a certain amount of change in the air/fuel ratio. If you were intalling a new intake manifold or something like that you'd def want to upgrade the fuel system at least with a better pump. One the other hand if you've got plans and the money you may as well do it now and get it done. If you wanna go all out you can do rails, injectors, pump, and an adjustable fuel pressure regulator and you should be all set. 1398spdr 03-16-2005, 07:28 AM yea, i knew i wouldnt need it simply for the tb, i just figured while i was in there i should do it to get it out of the way......... but all is on hold till i get some cashflow again anyway...........[:o] vertstanggt 03-17-2005, 03:59 AM It's all about how much you have to spend, lol. I wish I could just do anything I wanted to whenever I wanted to. 1398spdr 03-19-2005, 05:12 AM yea, thatd be nice huh..........:D |
