idi ip tweak questions....

I just bought an ats down pipe, turbo housing and the outlet, i installed it yesterday and am waiting for my gauges, and air filter to come in tomorrow. i want to turn up the fuel but dont know where the injection pump is and whether to turn the screw in or out to increase fuel. also, i hear people talking about turning their pump up a flat or two.... what is a flat? any help would be great.
thanks

Search this forum for "turn up pump" or similar and you will get all the information you need. If you think of a bolt head with one of the flats horizontal and you rotate it until the next flat is horizontal then you have turned it one flat. Hope this helps. Good luck with your project.
