Programmer and Tuner Question
 
I have enjoyed the mild tuning mods and Hypertech program on stage 3 for several years now. I want to know how a set of mildly performance injectors will change things. Horsepower and torque. EGTs. MPGs!!! Stock clutch with 210k miles on it. Is a hotter program better, easier, and cheaper? What do yall think?

Well the injectors are gonna give you increase hp/tq, and depending how you drive better mpgs. But your gonna have higher egts if you dont have a A/F turbo that would support this added fuel. If I was you I would get a btr clutch than add the power thats just me. Plus a more aggresive tuner that taps into your injector pump, better fuel sticks and a turbo and your gonna see a big increase. Depending on if you constantly gettin on the fuel pedal will make the differenced if your stock clutch last.:nope:

I appreciate your info, Killstroker. I'm really looking for a much less extreme (expensive) increase in power. Have I already reached the point to where that's my only option? Hypertech, 4" exhaust without muffler, BHAF, and Raptor 100 lift pump is my list of mods.

what about guages???? If not then a EJWA would be a great choice with a supprting clutch.. Fill out your sig!!!!!!!!!:scare2: lol

zach2 03-23-2011 09:51 PM

Ha! You're right! I do need to fill out my profile. I have got pillar mounted pyro and boost gauges.

then u cant beat a comp box...IMO or maybe even a smarty revo..:rocking:

zach2 03-24-2011 05:18 AM

Thanks. Will the Comp box compensate for tire size? Can l get that from my Hypertech and use them both?

KillStroker 03-24-2011 06:41 AM

I think you can use them both but I would use the Comp box for fuel/timing and the hypertech on stock but for your tires and gearing. U need to check to see if they will stack first. My second thought is you could just get a diff tire size compensator that doesnt plug into your OBD port?????

If they are compatible, what change in fuel mileage can I expect and what about VP44 longevity? For my info, when do I look at larger injectors?

KillStroker 03-24-2011 03:36 PM

Well Its avertised at 2-3 mpg depending upon driving style?????? Thats up to you to debate and people on here will probably chime in. I know I have an edge on mine and just plugging it on stock lvl the truck is just a smoother operator. I would say ive gotten a lil increase in fuel but I put a Airdog 150 in as well so its hard to say about getting btr mileage. The AD says the the same mileage increase. But have I seen a 4-6 increase with the 2? ...no. I generally get 23mpg on the "make a wish overhead counter". Running it on the Mileage lvl.

As far as the VP44 There is some stickys all about VP44's at the begining of the discussion board.

Get a Fuel pressure gauge yesterday.

Injectors well its hard saying for future I assume your running the stock turbo. Id stick to 50hp-100hp sticks unless you plan for an upgraded turbo and tranny work in the future. I plan on getting 150 sticks soon but had to pay for Hot water heater. I also saving for a turbo and tranny. I just found out that Goerend Tranny is only and hour from my house.:tu:
