depends on how you look at it....the early bird hasn't been beet on quite so hard cause the power wasn't there..and every thing we need to swap out..most all of us has to swap to get good power..I got used parts and did the turbo up grade for 1000 bucks...my early turbo **** out on me and that's $750 to replace..so I just up dated instead...I .just did the modded 17 HPOP witch most want to do.and .we all do bigger injectors any how..

I don't even think its 20hp. My early bird claims 250 on the valve cover while most claim 235... IH vs. Ford HP ratings. What's funny about the cost of upgrading is... most late99-03 guys buy big fancy HPOPs for big $ and us early bird guys buy their stockers for cheap compared to what the big oil stuff costs, so really we are probably ahead.

Hmm, so what size are say baby swamps? Aren't they only like 150cc? Not much bigger than the late injectors. I put them in the 97 I had and it made a huge difference with the tuning, but I'm guessing you don't have as much room to improve on a late model?
