    Fuel Injection Service?

    The in the tank cleaners do very little to nothing to clean fuel injectors. in it's concentrated form it is very strong but when put in a tank of gas it gets dilluted so much that it doesnt do any good. now if the dealer is doing a true fuel injector cleaning they will stop the fuel pump...

    Trick Flow 2V N/A 408hp on Horse Power T.V.

    to extend sort of on what winters said(no bashing:D) the reason no one has come out with a good aftermarket head for the 2v is because of the mentality of the 2v crowd. just as stated in this thread...it is way easier to make 400+ horespower(which is all any street car needs....really) by just...

    Vortech Owners--Info Please

    dont even bother with the fmu. just get yourself some good size injectors and an adjustable fuel pressure regulator and you'll be fine. the majority of the guys(including myself) dont use that worthless fmu. get a 255 lph pump from summit and maybe even a boost-a-pump from kenne bell. i...
