If you had a 4k redline that would be a killer pull! :P

Wow, look at the tourque on that mother I will never pick on an Escort again. It is a little on the rich side. I'm wondering if leaning it out a tad would free up a few more horses?

24lb injectors to replace the stock 15lbs. A Adjustable FPR set to 19psi of fuel pressure for the larger injectors. Cartech adjustable 20005 FMU. And (2) 5th 42lbs injectors and home made controller.


Oh, and stock the car put's down about 75whp.

haha, thats pretty cool. Id roll that ----
Interesting how the fuel just drops in all of a sudden. Are those 2 extra injectors switched by a Hobbs switch and pulsed w/ the others? Was that brief lean spot from switching them on at too high a PSI?

As far at gaining some power by taking out some fuel, I dont really think the gains will really be that much. Assuming its not any lower than 9's and the car isnt already surging/stumbling up top, there prolly isnt more than 10whp left to gain.

I like the idea of mildly bigger injectors w/ lower fuel pressures. Get more mileage outa the rising rate that way.

So how are you running those 2 extra ones?
Ohh, and how much boost was this on?

Ghettofabulous sleeper you have there.
