Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
No idea on colors, but they have catalogs full of product, some of which they had to get a special certification to buy, so they could probably get whatever you need taken care of.

As for my update, I'll post pictures when it arrives next week

Selling my DW800's and getting ID1000 fuel injectors instead.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
ID1000's, very good choice. ID ones are the bees knees.
I'd probably do the FIC1100's myself though, cheaper.
So you are hitting the dyno tomorrow then?

ID is a local TX company based not far from here, they're in-stock and won't change the timeline at all (install/tune tomorrow), easy choice for this situation. I just made this decision late yesterday afternoon.

800's would have been enough, it wasn't larger size I was after with this move.

Bah, the DW's aren't as bad as people say, especially the 800's haven't seen many problems with them at all
You didn't answer the real question, you hitting the dyno tomorrow?! |

After getting some news yesterday, then talking to a few people, it was the easy choice. An engine failure is not something I'm willing to risk, especially over only a few hundred extra dollars. Plus the extra capacity to support E85 if I ever decide to make the conversion will be convenient.

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
Muhahahaha!!
dew want!!!
I was asking about the injectors because i was unsure if you were on corn. Also I'm aware that ID1000s are a superior injector, they are the bees knees!
I don't like any DW products, haven't really seen anything solid from them as far as pumps or injectors go.
How much psi, you looking to run with this thing?

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
Change in plans... 
No tuning this weekend, someone at Cobb had, from the sounds of it, a pretty serious personal emergency so I'm trying to just remember that life is obviously far more important than cars and not be too upset about the delay. I may still get the turbo installed this weekend and get it tuned one evening next week after work. Delays won't be any longer than a week...

Re: GheyrodX - bigger, fatter, gheyer!
Can't you tune it yourself? I figured the dyno was just for numbers?
Good luck to whoever is having issues, but hey now you can take time to make everything extra pretty with your car!!
