Aaron there are stage 1s, stage 2s, and stage 3s (aka: hybrids)

Stage 1s provide the lowest power gains and stage 3s will provide the highest power gains.

I'm thinking of a set of stage 2 140cc 100% over single shots for my truck, but the $ just isn't there for me. Plus I need some reliability as my truck is a DD.

with that being said......my injectors are stage 1, single shot, stock nozzle, 160cc. for comparison, the stock singles are ~90cc. the stage 2 are 160cc as well, but have a different nozzle.

i dont know how much power you are looking for, but i would stick with 160cc and less otherwise you are going to need a lot of $$$$ for turbo and oil. also, the bigger nozzles are very smokey and hot, and i wouldnt dream of towing heavy with them, even with the best of programming.

as we speak i am just cleaning up from putting in a set of "tranny savers" for a guy. 130cc stock nozzle. time to head home though.

ill type at you guys later!
