Default 140 volt mod.

Hey guys, thinking of doing the 140 volt mod, but my truck has the stock down pipe and worried about EGT's since I dont have a gauge.
Would the mod make that much of a difference in the EGT's and should I wait until I do the down pipe upgrade?

won't change the egts, no need to worry about the egts with stock injectors because they will not flow enough fuel to cause egt problems and OBS trucks have a large exhaust housing

I went ahead and did the 140 this past week. Don't plan on really using her until after I get the 3" DP installed anyways. I figured it would be ok. It doesn't introduce that much more fuel. Seems a little more responsive now, but still have the up pipe leak to fix and waiting on the 3"

Thanks for the input Power.

Go ahead and look at the link honda. You have to be pretty good with a soldering iron because the resister is very small.
