I've been doing nothing the past couple days, and find myself on tuners more and more. Reading about some of the evoIII 16g cars, has made me decide to bump up to one of those. Also, my reading has made me decide to move to e-fuel in the spring. There's a station right by my house, and one right by my grandparents, and those are my usual 2 areas I'm around, so availability won't be a problem.

Now I would plan to ditch my safc, and depending on when ecmlink lite comes out for dsm's, I'd prob go that route. Anyone have any info on when they're gonna be releasing it? I figured a set of fic 1000cc injectors would do the job just fine, so thats what I'm planning on getting (if it's overkill, just call me out on it, cause I'm no expert when it comes to the e-fuel switch).

So my goals will change a bit. I have a good tranny, and a good condition act 2600 in the car, so not too worried about that end. Plan to do a bit of porting, nothing crazy, just a mild port job on the exhaust manifold, turbo, and port matching the head. I'll be going through the drivetrain, so I hope to make it a reliable 350-400hp car (somewhere in that range). I just don't wanna blow it up..hahaha

1000's should be good into the low 400's at DB. Once my build is done I'll be pushing the 1k's that I have fairly hard but there aren't many injector options on the X right now.

i really don't know a whole lot with the e-fuel, but i know that that'll be pretty good and deffinately not overkill. you could even use higher cc ones if you want.

Well then I'll be getting 1000cc's. Maybe some of the 16g guys, that are pushing/have pushed their 16g's pretty hard, can chime in with some tips on how to get all I can out of one. Those crazy English racing guys, are getting like 450+ out of theirs, but on e98 and 40psi spikes!

whats the skinny on the motor? are you going to rebuild it yourself or what?

Not sure. Danes more than capable of rebuilding a shortblock for me. If I have the money though, I'm gonna send it out to have it done (ill be sending it to gosh, to have it honed and decked regardless) Ill end up doing the final assembly (putting the longblock together), taking my time, and doing it by the book. I still haven't dug into exactly what happened, so I guess come spring, I'll know what failed.

I maxed out a big 16g (34psi spike dropping to 24) and maxed out a small 16g with the same boost level on my 950's and never had a problem. Now I'm moving on to a bigger turbo so I'll def be needing bigger injectors. When I put mine up for sale I'll have to PM you.

What numbers did you see with the big 16g at that level? Idk if I'll push the evo 3 16g that far, but would be nice to have an idea. And def let me know when you sell those injectors.

If you're interested in it, I can pull it during the winter, and sell it. It's a top tank style, so the end tanks are on the top and bottom, it's very short route intercooler piping. Pm me if you're actually interested. I need to dig the car out anyways, and throw a either a car cover, or a tarp over it anyways.
