. . . and don't forget all the plumbing you remove has to be replaced (as in purchased NEW) because all of it is one time seal.

At pressures at around 28,000 psi how many times are they supposed to seal, 3 . . . 5 . . . 10? How much are you willing to pay for these "upgraded" fittings? A leak in this area is a serious issue that threatens the entire engine.

This isn't your fathers engine!

We have a set that will be in testing soon. The injectors themselves are not the holdup; but the correct software to recalibrate for the injectors. Aftermarket injectors CANNOT just be dropped into these trucks and be expected to perform correctly.

Me to! Louder turbinators and black smoke!

I figured the only holdup was coming up with a chip to run those bad boys. What kind of numbers are you expecting to reach with these units and a hot chip? 450hp perhaps?

I am very curious to see what kind of numbers these trucks will put down with some tuning. The numbers are already pretty impresive on the dyno stock, add some aftermarket goodies and it could be intresting. Hopefully it will top the other two brands.

aftermarket injectors, tuners to run them, someone removes the tuner to get warranty work done, we see its running rich, replace all the injectors. THIS IS GONNA GET UGLY!

People are going to simply HAVE to learn that with heavy mods, all future work is going to have to go through the shop that installed/tuned it.

Now, from what I know so far...the PCM's stock fuel trim limits will be able to manage somewhere in the ball-park of a 38L/Min@28mPa-2500uS (stock being 29L/Min@28mPA-2500uS) without idle quality or fuel mixture problems; which would leave the issues related only to a more competition-level injector. I won't know until I actually get one up, running, and calibrated...but I'm pretty confident there is a margin of error to work with.
