Sounds like it will get out of the way in a hurry. How are you connecting the stock lines to the fuel rails?

The profesional prodcuts rails have adapters to fit the stock fuel lines. Are DBX meters bad?

I've got the 97 DBX on my car and have had no problems. What issues have you seen, Rick 91GT ?

N, I had major issues on a poweradder car and just could not get it right, I swapped to a SCT meter while we were on the dyno and it smoothed right out. I know AFM had good results with them I talked to Brian a few times trying to see what was going on. I had another shop owner fight a DBX as well and went to a proM blowthrough meter on a ATI setup and problems went away..


I have no experience with them in a NA car. I like the idea of the fully user adj meter, I know PMAS was working on one before they closed.

I see, well now I'll know where to start if I have problems when I finally put boost to this car!

Boss 351 was having issues with PP fuel rails. Maybe he could shed some light.

Has the on3 kit with the house turbo last I checked. Was one of the first with a 351 kit and had some fitment problems but ran it on his 351 for a while. Now bumping up to forged 408.

Hmm... I just looked at that kit. $1499 on Jegs. I think I'd still rather build my own so I know it fits and I can laugh even harder when I stomp the LS kids into the ground.
