Lidio also said he likes the SCT BA-2600 MAF but can work with the PRO M 80MMLidio himself told me to get the 60# injectors. He owns Alternative Auto. I'm sure many of you know of him. So If he says 60 # injectors and all you say 42 # injectors who should I listen to? I throw the 22# of boost cause one day I would love to push the HP / Torque numbers. I know what I need to push higher numbers but as for now I think Lidio knows what he is talking about.
My mistake....you seem to already have all of the answers. Carry on.

Is it that big of a sin to put 60 # ers on 450 hp car? lol
60#'ers on my stock block car. just sayin
My goals are 400 to 450 hp at this time.I'm well aware of Lidio's reputation as a tuner. That's not what's in question here. I'm also aware that he's in business to make money. If you tell him you want to see 600hp one day, then why should he talk you out of it? He's going to recommend the parts to make that happen because that's what you asked for. He's not going to talk you out of buying expensive parts or tell you to take a step back and really consider your goals, budget and timeline if it possibly means repeat business for him. This way, he get's to tune your car twice, or more and make god knows how much more money out of you over the next couple of years in the process.
Nothing wrong with that....it's business. But he's in this to make money and keep the lights on....not to talk make the decisions for you.
I notice you didn't answer any of my other questions? Answer those before you decide to ask any more.
What are your goals?
How fast do yo plan on running?
Why the magic 22psi and 600+hp numbers
Are you prepared for the other supporting parts necessary to harness 600hp?
What's your budget?
Are you aware you'll be in $20k before this is done?
How long do you plan on this taking?
No.....what makes you think you've got a 450hp car? What parts have you got thus far?
You ask a lot of questions, but aren't giving us much to work with. Details!!!
No doubt they'll do the trick and are very tunable, but I just couldn't justify the cost difference.possibly, but after reading up on all the many tried and true boosted combo's out there, I chose the 60's!
With a custom tune, anything is possible.Will 60 # injectors work with a 350 hp car? Sure its overkill but thats not the question.
must've been noith of da bordah no? need moar fuel up in dem parts

Fair enoughNo doubt they'll do the trick and are very tunable, but I just couldn't justify the cost difference.
I have seen guys fall short with the 42's, but have also seen them run incorrect fuel pumps, or other intake and supporting mods to back them.
Case in point....I originally had 36lb/injectors in my Cougar when I built it years ago and my tuner told me I was running out of fuel at 300rwhp!?!
That should have been my first clue that something was up, but I went with his advice anyway and upgraded to 42's. Wouldn't you know it....I was still having fuel issues.
Got rid of my stock air box and ran a large filter on the end and all was fine. Ditched the 255lph fuel pump for the high pressure unit and had more fuel than I knew what to do with.
Could have stuck with the smaller injector and just upgraded the pump and intake, but my tuner wanted to make money. Live and learn...$1,000 later.
Yep, My custom tune and my 60# injectors aint getting me nowhere with the car still torn apart in the barn!
