Considering there has been a bunch of cold and rainy days mixed in with snow and ice then yes! It is all relative

Hey guys needs some help.

On MM's site it shows the P2 as being the center 2 on the fuel rail. I was told to put them in the 1st and 4th injector on the branch of 4. Can someone confirm where they need to be installed?!

I feel like I'm going to get smacked for this, but that's a RHD car, would the image be reversed for a left hand drive car?

The engine would be the same for RHD or LHD.

MM usually advises to put larger injectors in the P2 spot .

I was informed on where they need to be installed in different locations. The previous owner of the kit told me to install the P2 injectors in position 1 and 4 on the fuel rail. MM's site shows the center two position.

So are you saying they should be installed in the center 2 positions as MM's example shows?

Absolutely.

The two outer positions (secondary) are behind valving. We want the bigger injectors to be available all the time, not just when the PCM is programmed to open the secondaries.

On a 4-port motor we have no choice, but on the 6-port the P2 position is ALWAYS correct.

You existed, and I didn't look to see who wrote it and assumed it was you out of zealous affliction.

^Good luck, you should be able to get there. As I said my car is down 10 hp or so from where it should be, and Mark has shown there is another 10 hp or more above that.

Go for it!

Let's see, his motor is stronger than mine - +10.
Add the header (I think?) and ignition for that flat torque curve at the top - +10.
MM's tuning skills - +10.

I predict 240! LOL, j/k.

Picked up the car last night. Idle is rock solid. Just a few minor things to clean up before Saturday. FD3S worked their *** off getting this installed and could not be happier.

Gauges just arrived at my work
