I just got a Powerdyne 9lb unit from a buddy scored a good deal on it!! I figured its a good entry level blower. Anyways i need to convert to mass air now. Im doing that this winter and i want to order it already programmed for 24 or 30 lb injectors. If i had 30lb injectors would that be overkill for what i have done, i would like to get the 30s just so i dont have to have the mass air recalibrated a year later or something, so what should i do, 30lbers or 24?? Alslo, i sold the 155lph and got a 255lph instead!!

24# would work but I would go 30# no FMU, 80MM Professional Mass Air (new Pro-M) shorty style meter.

just go with 42lb. injectors and 255 pump and you will have enough fuel for 500rwhp if you ever go that high. then go to a good tuner and have him set the car up right.

HI,

On the Powerdyne if you keep the FMU, make sure its a 10:1 FMU if you go with the #24s, or put it on the rollers and get yourself a custom chip burned.

It really depends on your goal for the car. If its just the blower 24s are ok.

Yeah if he gets 42lb injectors he is going to have all the problems that come with it even with a good tune. 24's are enough since he doesnt have H/C/I he can always sell the 24's and get the 30's later when the time comes to add more power.
