Just give the 66 the fuel it requires... your injectors are way too small

give any thought to the fact that hes got 150s with 4:10s and maybe he isnt looking to make 700hp and would still like to tow with it

63mm will make all the boost you need and keep your 150s cool enough to tow with. I would imagine you silver bullet is so slow to spool that its causing your egts to rise.

I didn't give that any thought because he never said he wants to tow anything and I have 4.10 gears I think that's an advantage with a 66... he obviously wanted to run the turbo, I say before copping out atleast set it up properly and see how it is. 250hp injector is what you need.
